Care in nursing

In a time of extraordinary challenges, this book provides an important insight into what it means to deliver patient care. From theory to practice, high quality care must be at the heart of all that we do * Dr Peter Carter, Chief Executive & General Secretary, Royal College of Nursing *
This is a book you could buy before starting on a nursing course and still be able to refer to it further on in your studies and even post-qualification. It addresses current and relevant topics often missed out in other texts and acknowledges some of the situations students and staff face. * Beverly Hall, 3rd year student, Adult Branch, Manchester *
Will students a good grounding in the theory and knowledge base related to caring in nursing. The practical tips and transferable skills gained will be beneficial to students in dealing with and helping patients. * Ruhi Behi, formerly Head of the School of Heath Care Sciences, Bangor University *
I have never come across the caring debate in such detail or from such a highly original, realistic and refreshing angle before. The main strength of this book is that it is easy to read, inspiring and gives helpful practical advice to students so they can implement on placement what they have learned in theory. * Alys Bunce, Final Year Student, North East England *
We did not have a book such as this when I was training and I think it would have been invaluable, I also believe it would be a good ongoing resource to inform all practitioners. Well and clearly written with good balance of practical knowledge, theory and evidence base. * Becky Harding, Mental Health Staff Nurse, England *
