Fundamentals of Nursing
Description:... Fundamentals of Nursing, Australian and New Zealand 3rd edition, provides comprehensive coverage of fundamental nursing concepts, skills and standards of practice that challenges introductory nursing students to learn and apply critical thinking skills for culturally diverse populations in a variety of clinical environments. This book highlights the core themes of nursing, including nurse, person, health and environment and is based on the concepts of research and evidence-based practice. With up-to-date coverage of the Registered Nurse Standards of Practice (2016) and key pedagogical features such as our unique ‘Spotlight on critical thinking' questions, this text challenges students to assess their own nursing practice and apply the concepts they learn in class to real-life clinical settings. Fundamentals of Nursing presents in-depth material in a clear, concise manner using language that is easy to read and has good coverage of topics such as rural and remote nursing and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health. This text is complemented by the bestselling Tollefson, Clinical Psychomotor Skills: Assessment Tools for Nursing, which covers skills and procedures. A value pack of these two texts is available.
