Nursing Practice and Health Care, 4Ed

by Sue Hinchliff

Nursing Practice and Health Care is essential reading for those studying nursing at degree and diploma level, and for students on post-registration courses, conversion courses, or those returning to practice.

This fourth edition has been completely revised to reflect the current professional and educational requirements for those preparing for registration as a nurse, and it maintains a strong focus on practice and thr needs of those requiring nursing and health care. The text is clearly informed by the Code of professional conduct (NMC 2002), the requirements for pre-registration nursing programmes (UKCC 2000), Fitness for practice (UKCC 1999) and relevant health policy documents from the four countries of the UK.

This thoroughly updated textbook provides support for the student to develop skills in critical thinking to enable the development of an accountable, professional practitioner, and reflects themes and perspectives relevant to current understanding of nursing and health care practice.
