Written specifically for students who are undertaking a foundation degree or higher level apprenticeship in healthcare practice, or for those studying for the new nurse associate role, this book provides readers with the core knowledge and skills, giving them a springboard to further study.  

Key features include:

·        a one-stop shop for the course including a broad range of topics such as study skills, professional development, infection control and health promotion, health sciences, mental health, learning disabilities, children and families,

·        clinical case studies throughout to show how theory relates to real-life practice

·        different levels of activity to help students ‘step up learning’ whether they are at level 4 or 5

Written by a wide range of authors with both experience in practice and in running degrees in nursing and health, the book is essential reading for all healthcare support workers, assistant practitioners and nurse associates.



A ‘one stop shop’ for foundation degree students, Nursing Associates and first year Nurses.  It covers the core modules, supporting students’ learning and achievement, and preparing them for their future roles.

Arvustused

A useful book for both trainee Nursing Associates and Associate Practitioner students commencing their studies. It provides a good introduction to key aspects of health and social care, as well as clinical and academic study skills, with the added bonus of recommendations for further reading and additional resources. -- Lucie Llewellyn This text is a valuable resource for beginners in healthcare to acquire transferable skills and experience to be successful in the world of work. It lays the foundation for understanding  the principles of life long care and health promotion including the development of leadership and management skills. -- Dr Swapna Williamson, Associate Professor I am delighted to endorse this book, as it is almost a one-stop point of academic education with clinical competencies that I have not seen before. It is contemporary yet main stream and will be a perfect aide memoire for not only student Assistant Practitioners, Nursing Associates and Higher Level Apprenticeship but for first year student nurses too. -- Jane Gidman
