Written and edited by four respected nurse educators, with contributions from 20 nursing experts, this text seeks to bridge the gap between nursing theory and clinical practice. The text exemplifies the nursing care process both at various developmental stages (child/adolescent, adults, and elderly) and at various practical settings (ambulatory, acute, long-term and home care). Incorporating three important family theories--family systems, family ecology, and resiliency model--the text illustrates the use of theoretical concepts within actual family situations, unlike other texts which use only abstract concepts in order to guide their readers.
