Produktbeschreibung

"This textbook provides up-to-date information and resources for clinicians, educators, interprofes-sional teams, and students in their efforts to provide evidence-based, person-centered care to older adults across settings of care. The seventh edition of Evidence-Based Geriatric Nursing Protocols for Best Practice, authored by gerontological nurses recognized as experts, completely updates our sixth edition. The book is divided into five sections. The first section, Incorporating Evidence into Practice, provides organizational approaches that are foundational to gerontological best practices, including strategies and infrastructure to support an effective age-friendly care and practice envi-ronment. The second section presents Assessment and Management Principles for older adults and their caregivers, considering their complex physical and social situations. The third section, Clinical Interventions, addresses the management of common geriatric syndromes and health problems. The fourth section, Interventions in Specialty Practice, offers the latest best practices for older adults receiving specialized care for substance use and alcohol use disorders, serious mental illness, criti-cal illness, cancer, surgical needs, and end of life. The final section offers guidelines for Models of Care that optimize the role of nurses and their leadership in interdisciplinary teams across diverse settings of care"--
