内容説明

This text covers nursing care for the full spectrum of psychiatric disorders and psychosocial problems. This revised edition maintains the anxiety continuum framework and nursing process format of previous editions whilst incorporating chapters on psychiatric nursing - past, present and future; psychiatric nursing in the community setting; communication with families; psychobiology and mental disorders; and communication with angry and aggressive clients. The book introduces critical pathways to demonstrate the collaborative approaches to treatment plans used in many healthcare settings and includes critical thinking questions at the end of each chapter to foster problem-solving skills. The text comes packaged with a "Keys to Clinical Practice" guide which provides easy-to-access tools, intervention for specific types of behaviour and a drug reference. Clinical experiences are clarified with case studies, presented within the framework of the nursing process. The appropriate responses to disorders and behaviours are addressed through self-assessment exercises and "Nurses' Reactions and Feelings" sections.
