Synopsis

A crucial component to nursing excellence is the development and maintenance of a positive, caring relationship between the nurse and patient. Before this book, all other caring texts have been solely theoretical. "Quality Care" is the first to apply theoretical knowledge of caring in a practical way. Clear and concise charts, forms, illustrations, tables, and decision trees present essential information to guide treatment planning and documentation.Duffy also explains how to implement her very own Quality-Caring Model, which combines evidence-based practice with caring. Each chapter contains key terms, case studies, references to support further research, and application chapters also contain useful exercises for nurses.Chapters include: A Framework for Quality Nursing Practice; Caring for Patients and Families; Teaching Quality-Caring; and, Evaluating Quality-Caring.
