Compassion, Caring and Communication by Barbara Smith

Compassion, Caring and Communication by Barbara Smith

Compassion, caring and communication are all fundamental parts of patient care and something all health and social care workers encounter on a daily basis. This user-friendly reference guide will help you care for your patients in a person centred way.

"What a breath of fresh air! Finally a book for student nurses that addresses one of the most fundamental elements of nursing that so often gets forgotten along the way[...] Excellent value for money and an excellent addition to the Student Nurse Survival Guide series!" - Sarah McGlen, Nursing Student

 

"This compact, spiral bound, laminated survival guide will appeal to nursing students and healthcare assistants wanting basic information on the fundamental components of person-centred care. It will also appeal to experienced nurses who have perhaps lost their way and need a reminder of why they came into nursing in the first place. [...] There are useful insights into critical junctures, what we can do to make a difference, putting ourselves in the patient's shoes, meeting spiritual needs, encouraging reflective practice and dealing with complaints. At £5.99, this book is tremendous value for money." - Nursing Standard
