Description
The first volume in the HPNA Palliative Nursing Series, Structure and Processes of Care provides an overview of palliative nursing care, reviews National Consensus Project guidelines, and offers tools for initiating and maintaining palliative care programs. The content of the concise, clinically-focused volumes in the HPNA series prepares nurses for certification exams as well as quick-reference in daily practice. Plentiful tables, figures, and practical tools such as assessment instruments, pharmacology tables, and patient teaching points make these volumes useful resources for nurses.
Reviews / Votes
The material is well set out and the information is accessible, in addition to which there is a comprehensive-looking index....Light-weight and pocket-sized, I am looking forward to seeing the other seven volumes in the series. * Roger Woodruff Palliative Care Book of the Month *More details
