Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing - Tapa blanda

The second edition of "Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing" presents sound nursing theory, therapeutic communication, and clinical application for the major DSM-IV disorders, from hospital to home setting. Short, incisive chapters are organized around the nursing process, and emphasize assessment, student self-awareness, neurobiology, and psychopharmacologic intervention. Features of this title include critical thinking questions, clinical vignettes, drug alerts, cultural considerations, therapeutic dialogues, internet resources, teaching checklists, and nursing care plans. New to the second edition is a chapter on legal and ethical concerns, more crisis intervention content, and a free CD-ROM. NCLEX review questions are included at the end of every chapter.
