E-raamat: Fundamentals of Nursing: Active Learning for Collaborative Practice - E-Book: Active Learning for Collaborative Practice

Build a solid foundation in the knowledge and skills you need to succeed as a nurse! Designed specifically for today's healthcare environment, Fundamentals of Nursing, 4th Edition, takes a fresh, conversational approach that is friendlier than typical books on nursing fundamentals. To make understanding easier, the book introduces basic information first and then follows with progressively more nuanced and complex nursing concepts. Practical exercises provide a unique kind of active learning, allowing you to apply concepts to actual patient care. Even care planning is different, as authors Barbara L. Yoost and Lynne R. Crawford are pioneers of conceptual care mapping - a visual, holistic way of making clinical judgments and planning patient care. Essentially, this text offers an easier, fundamentally different way to learn the nursing profession!- Nursing Heads are correlated to the clinical judgment skills that occur at that stage of the nursing process- Clinical chapters contain one single-episode NGN-style case study with new NGN question types to help you practice for licensure from the beginning of your education- Interprofessional collaboration and delegation content appears throughout the text along with new IPE activities on the Evolve companion website- UNIQUE! Review and exam questions tied to learning objectives start at lower Bloom's taxonomy levels in early chapters and build to more complex levels as you acquire more knowledge- Emphasis on assignment and delegation covers the differences between them and how and when they're appropriate for a nurse- Content on complementary therapies throughout the text reflects changes to the NCLEX exam- UNIQUE! Warm, friendly writing style slows down the pace of information to give you time to critically think and master all fundamental concepts and skills- UNIQUE! Building block approach groups topics and concepts together thematically, in the order needed for you to build their knowledge- UNIQUE! Objective-driven approach presents clearly defined, numbered objectives that coordinate with all content and then wrap up with Objective Summaries- UNIQUE! Active learning exercises throughout every chapter help you learn to apply chapter content to broader nursing concepts and realistic patient scenarios- UNIQUE! Conceptual care mapping is taught and used throughout the text in conjunction with the conceptual care map creator on the Evolve companion website- Special feature boxes cover the areas of: diversity considerations, evidence-based practice, informatics, patient education, healthy literacy, health assessment questions, interprofessional collaboration and delegation, ethical and legal practice, home care considerations, safe practice alerts, critical thinking exercises, and nursing care guidelines
