Description and Table of Contents
Description
Accident and emergency is a demanding and complex area of practice, presenting diverse challenges for patient-centred care. This book is the first UK text in this area, which will meet both professional and clinical needs, and provide a holistic approach to the management and delivery of effective care. Each section contains a range of chapters, which address both core issues and emerging specialisms, reflecting the complexity and advances in emergency nursing. Research-based, this text is the essential resource for all nurses in emergency and critical care, as well as a stimulating textbook for all post-registration studies in this dynamic area of practice.
