Produktbeschreibung
Students and newly qualified staff make up much of the workforce delivering end-of-life care but, because end-of-life care can be both technically challenging and emotionally demanding, it is an aspect of nursing that can cause considerable anxiety.

This very accessible, straightforward book helps to allay those concerns and enables pre-registration students to prepare confidently for the challenges they will face when they are caring for dying patients and supporting their families. Each chapter is based on a different and realistic scenario - reflecting a range of circumstances - to demonstrate the essential generic knowledge and skills they need to develop, and draws out the important practical and theoretical issues students should consider and address if patients and their families are to receive the best possible care.

Written by two experienced palliative care lecturer/practitioners, and mapping closely to the NMC's 2010 domains, thebook is tailored to the needs of student nurses working with adult patients. It explores the importance of their role in end-of-life care and how this interfaces with the roles of other multidisciplinary professionals involved in the care of their patients. It will also be helpful to students of other health-care professions and support newly-qualified health-care professionals working in adult health.
Rezensionen
'I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book! The chapters are clear and easy for undergraduate students to understand. The use of case studies in particular strengthens the book and brings the discussion into the real-life practice context' -
Gillian Walton, Northumbria University

'The clear and straightforward writing style of this book makes it ideal for first year undergraduate students and those who have no experience of end of life care. The logical progression throughout each chapter helps readers to engage with the discussion' -
Brigid Purcell, University of Huddersfield
