Critical Care Nursing: Caring for Critically Ill Adults

Edited by Brian Millar, Edited by Philip Burnard






| book description |

A comprehensive, multi-contributed text addressing the range of knowledge and skills (nursing, management, educational, research) which underpin critical care nursing. It is the firstbook in this field which concentrates on holistic, individualized care of patients and their families, and examines a wide range of issues including professional, ethical, psycho-social and technological aspects of care. Chapters of particular interest are stress and burnout in critical care, complimentary therapies in critical care, spiritual aspects of critical care, and cultural issues in critical care. It has been skilfully edited to ensure a coherent and student-centerd approach and is clearly designed to encourage readers to reflect on the theories and consider them in the light of their own practice. This book: discusses the broader issues which underpin critical care nursing; offers a unique family-centered approach; features clear student-centerd design including key terms, case studies and questions; and includes a comprehensive range of topics.
