Key Questions in Healthcare Law and Ethics

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The perfect textbook for healthcare students who want a fresh, innovative way to understand how law and ethics relate to their studies, placements, and professional practice.

By using a unique format made up of frequently asked questions and corresponding answers, Key Questions in Healthcare covers the what, why, where and how in legal and ethical issues related to healthcare. Its easy-to-use layout helps you quickly find informative yet straightforward answers to over 150 questions, helping you to feel confident in your legal and ethical knowledge, without leaving you overwhelmed or confused. All answers are written in-line with Nursing and Healthcare regulations and its conversational writing style will make you feel like you are talking with a lecturer, instructor, or knowledgeable colleague, rather than reading a textbook.

The book is appropriate for all levels, from healthcare students in the initial stages of their education, to the advanced practitioner who wishes to refresh their knowledge, or maybe learn something new.
