Theory and Practice of Nursing by Lynn Basford
Covering all the essential principles common to all branches of nursing, this book provides an integrated introduction to the theory and practice of all aspects of professional practice. The book approaches the subject from the viewpoint of health as well as illness. The ever-increasing importance of community care is emphasised, and due recognition is given to the social and cultural aspects of nursing, founded on sound theoretical knowledge reflecting up-to-date research. The text is interactive, encouraging active study rather than passive reading. Each chapter carries a statement of learning outcomes and a variety of questions and activities with self-test exercises at the end of each module.The book is structured in eight modules: focus on care, the professional discipline of nursing, the theoretical basis of nursing, the nursing process, therapeutic modes, the delivery of nursing care, the social context of nursing and the branches of nursing. An introduction is given to the various fields and specialities within the profession.| SKU | Unavailable |
