BHT 107 Question Paper December 2025 is the sharpest practice set for students learning to manage the health and care of older persons. If your exam falls in 2026, this is the one to rehearse on, covering the ethics of geriatric care workers, the National Policy on Older Person 1999, Ayushman Bharat HWC-SC services, and communication in elderly care. Let's break it down.
About IGNOU BHT-107 Management of Health Care of Older Persons
BHT-107 looks at the systems, ethics and people skills behind caring for older persons well. It begins with conduct and rights, the key attributes of ethical behaviour for geriatric health and care workers and the rights an older patient holds in a health care centre, before moving to how India's health system actually reaches the elderly.
That system strand compares private health care with the government sector on accessibility and availability, and sets out the package of services available at HWC-SC under the Ayushman Bharat programme, alongside the key features of the National Policy on Older Person (NPOP) 1999.
The course closes on the human skills that geriatric care demands. You study the types and purposes of communication, the guidelines for honest and sensitive communication in elderly care, the essential components of informed consent, the Emotional Competencies Matrix, listening skills, and how a skilled person uses intrapreneurship to build a geriatric health care unit.

It sits within the BHT-107 course of the IGNOU Certificate in Geriatric Health and Care Programme (CGHC) and reflects the official IGNOU Term-End Examination of December 2025.

How to Use BHT-107 December 2025 Question Paper to Score in the 2026 Exam
Rehearse this December 2025 IGNOU paper against a real two-hour clock, and remember the kindness of this format: you answer ten of twelve, so prepare all twelve topics lightly and write the ten you know best with confidence.
The policy questions reward exact recall. A question on the National Policy on Older Person 1999 wants its key features named, and a question on the Ayushman Bharat HWC-SC package wants the actual services listed, so memorise these as crisp points rather than vague summaries.
The communication and ethics questions reward real examples from older-persons care. For honest and sensitive communication in elderly care, or for the importance of listening skills, ground your points in how you would speak with an anxious older patient. An informed consent question is won by listing its essential components, and the intrapreneurship question splits 2+3, so define the term briefly then spend most of your words on the process of building a geriatric health care unit.
Sample Answer Approach (not a full answer)
Take question 9, the essential components of informed consent, worth five marks in 200 to 300 words. Here is the shape of a full-marks answer, not the answer itself.
Context: one line on why informed consent protects the dignity and autonomy of an older patient.
The components to list: disclosure of the procedure and its risks and benefits, the patient's capacity to decide, voluntariness without coercion, comprehension, and documented agreement.
A concrete example: explaining a treatment to an older person in plain language and confirming they have understood before they sign.
Closing line: a short note on consent as an ongoing process, not a one-off signature.
