Nurses in hospital, general practice and the community will frequently encounter patients with neurological disorders, both as primary cause of consultation, and as co-existing disease. This practical handbook, now updated, provides support from a number of perspectives for practitioners caring for patients with neurological disorders. The neuroscience nurse will use this as a training/mentoring tool. The experienced generalist nurse on the ward will find this an invaluable aide-memoire. Nurses in general practice and the community will use as a reference when dealing with individual patients with chronic disease. Student nurses on clinical placements will find this an invaluable introduction to a complex and fascinating field of care. A summary of neurological danger signs introduces the pocket reference , followed by a brief outline of the nervous system. The second section provides a thorough understanding of the different methods of assessment of neurological disease. Part three is a concise overview of ten major neurological conditions, reviewing: causes, signs and symptoms, diagnosis, treatment and nursing care. Overall this resource provides a succinct introduction to a complex area of practice. This is an invaluable resource for the practising nurse, and for shared use in ward, clinic and community.
This book will be an invaluable resource for nurses and allied healthcare professionals of all backgrounds and levels of experience.. It is clear and concise, pitched at the right level, with good use of imagery. British Association of Neuroscience Nurses
