A Handbook for Student Nurses is a comprehensively updated introduction to the essential background knowledge that pre-registration nursing students need as a foundation for the rest of their training. This book covers the core of first year nursing:
* Legal and professional issues
* Communication
* Values and health care ethics
* Reflection and personal development
* Evidence-based practice
* Study skills and IT
* Medicine, IV fluid and drug administration (new for this edition)
Case studies and examples, activities and reflection points all aid learning, while up-to-date legislation, key documents and reports, and website links to relevant organisations provide easy access to core information.
What lecturers thought about the first edition:
“I found this to be an excellent resource and I feel students new to the profession would find it extremely useful…. The book is well-organised, highly readable and accessible.”
“An excellent introductory text for student nurses, written in a clear and illuminative style.”
