| Summary: | "This textbook: Maintains a strong focus on nursing care as the essential element in learning. This is regardless of the age of the client or the setting for care. Provides a proper balance of physiology, pathophysiology, pharmacology, and interdisciplinary care, on which to base safe, competent, and individualised nursing care. Emphasises the nurse’s role as an essential member of the interdisciplinary healthcare team. Fosters critical thinking and decision-making skills as the basis for nursing excellence in clinical practice. Emphasises that the person receiving care has not only a personal experience with health and illness, but is also an active participant in maintaining and/or regaining health. That person is regarded as a client, rather than a patient, and the client as an individual, a family, or a community."--Publisher's website. |
