Marilynn E Doenges: Nursing Care Plans, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

"In the 11th edition of Nursing Care Plans, the authors seek to help nurses move beyond critical thinking to apply nursing knowledge that guides their clinical judgments. The cognitive process applied to reach clinical judgments is intended to and does improve nursing practice and client outcomes. Indeed, nurses' knowledgeable and wise clinical judgments demonstrate the increased value and worth of the nursing profession to help improve the healthcare system. Thus, nursing must take action to expand nurses' roles and responsibilities in nursing practice for greater improvements in healthcare. To meet the challenges of client care competently, the nurse must have up-to-date assessment skills and a working knowledge of pathophysiological concepts concerning the common diseases and conditions presented. This book is designed for students who will find the plans of care helpful as they learn and develop skills in applying the nursing process and using nursing diagnoses. It will complement their classroom work, support the critical thinking process, and assist in developing clinical judgment. The book also provides a ready reference for practicing nurses as a catalyst for thought in planning, evaluating, and documenting care"--
