A handbook for student nurses

Description

This is a comprehensively updated introduction to the essential background knowledge that pre-registration nursing students need as a foundation for the rest of their training. This book covers the core of first year nursing: Legal and professional issues ; Communication ; Values and health care ethics ; Reflection and personal development ; Evidence-based practice ; Study skills and IT ; Medicine, IV fluid and drug administration (new for this edition) Case studies and examples, activities and reflection points all aid learning, while up-to-date legislation, key documents and reports, and website links to relevant organisations provide easy access to core information. What lecturers thought about the first edition: I found this to be an excellent resource and I feel students new to the profession would find it extremely useful. The book is well-organised, highly readable and accessible. An excellent introductory text for student nurses, written in a clear and illuminative style.
