Synopsis
Professionalism in Nursing: A Foundation for Practice creates excitement about a career in nursing for those who are just entering the profession and rekindles the flame for nurses returning to the academic setting. The book moves from nursing’s roots to its future and areas of potential expansion. It gives clear insight into what a nurse is, and what nurses do.
Nursing truly is a profession. This idea is validated through documented, evidence-based outcomes. Nursing has a rich past and a promising future. The fifteen chapters in Professionalism in Nursing: A Foundation for Practice introduce readers to the building blocks of professional nursing, including the scope of nursing practice, acute and chronic care, healthcare delivery, various clinical settings, patient rights, problem solving, ethics, politics, and nursing theory.
In addition the book addresses several important topics not traditionally covered in nursing textbooks, such as technology in nursing practice, evidence-based nursing practice, and career options.
The material has been class-tested. This book assists students in overcoming preconceived perceptions of nursing and increases awareness of the responsibilities and opportunities unique to the profession.
