From the Back Cover
Blending a critical look at contemporary issues and trends with practical application, Nursing in Contemporary Society covers the broad spectrum of issues present in today's nursing environment and presents practical approaches designed to facilitate the transition into nursing practice. Topics build a foundation for success and continued learning through discussions of the evolution of nursing; current trends influencing practice; economic, political, and legal changes; and more. An emphasis on the unique role of the nurse within the health care environment allows readers to fully understand their role in the promotion of health and well being. This is an essential preparation resource for everyone entering the nursing practice.
