Description
This pocket guide, a derivative of Stuart and Sundeen's Principles and Practice of Psychiatric Nursing, emphasizes a well-established stress-adaptation nursing model, with a strong nursing approach to caregiving balanced with the most current medical and biological information on psychiatric disorders. This new edition reflects the revisions made to the larger textbook. These include updates on advances in psychobiology and psychopharmacology, new self-assessment and awareness boxes, and examples of actual clinical pathways on different psychological disorders. There will also be more content on managed care in psychiatric nursing and a greater emphasis on community settings.
