Description
Healthy Ageing:: Nursing Older People brings together the gerontological literature and nursing practice with older people to produce a comprehensive resource for nurses and other professionals working in a broad spectrum of settings including primary health care, hospitals, intermediate care and care homes.

Using Maslows Hierarchy of Needs as a framework, chapter construction reflects current trends in self-directed learning, including learning objectives, key points, areas for reflection and activities which encourage readers to pursue other material. Case studies are used to link nursing and gerontological theory to practice. Tables, figures and summaries emphasize principles of care.

The in-depth coverage of this book encompasses normal ageing, maintaining health and wellness, nutrition and impaired cognition, sexuality, relationships, social networks and end of life care. It also includes topics not commonly found in other nursing texts, such as laboratory values, pain and comfort, environmental safety and security and self-actualisation. The final chapter examines emerging trends influencing the development of gerontological nursing in the UK today.

This text will be invaluable to all nurses working with older people, particularly diploma and degree pre-registrations students, qualified practitioners undertaking specialist practice courses and those preparing themselves for higher level practice.
