Synopsis

This practical book provides a framework to assist student nurses in developing skills as decision makers.

Key topics explored include:

  • Learning to make clinical decisions
  • Using knowledge to inform decisions
  • Making decisions as part of a team
  • Reflecting on practice and building a portfolio
  • Understanding ethical and legal issues involved in decision making
  • Making the transition from being a student to making clinical decisions as a registered nurse.
Clinical scenarios are used to highlight key points within the book and reflective activities are included for students to complete and use as part of their portfolio and skill development.

The Student Nurse Guide to Decision Making in Practice is designed to be used throughout the whole nursing programme, is suitable to all nursing branches and offers a useful guide for ongoing practice.
