This text offers an innovative and dynamic description of change in the delivery of nursing practice. This is achieved through an examination of new professional roles, an exploration of the frameworks which underpin practice, and finally, by a critical appraisal of how change has been implemented at the ""interface"" of practice.
Written in a clear, jargon free style by practitioners at the ""cutting edge"" of caring, Innovations in Nursing Practice challenges and invites the reader to become proactive as an agent of change in the work place.
