Nurse, Drugs and the Patient

This new book is a highly patient-orientated pharmacology text aimed principally at Registered General Nurse and Registered Mental Nurse students. It should however also be of interest to student midwives, health visitors and district nurses. The book is intended to complement the nursing process in its detailed approach to patient care and subsequent teaching with respect to drug therapy. A unique feature of the book is that the material is presented in a manner which supports established documentation at ward level. Patient problems are grouped together in systems and the reader is encouraged to do additional reading from readily-obtainable nursing journals and texts.
