Reflective practice enables nursing students to make sense of, and learn from, the experiences they have each day and if nurtured properly can provide skills that they will come to rely on throughout their nursing careers.
Using clear language and insightful examples, scenarios and case studies, the new fourth edition of this bestselling book shows readers what reflection is, why it is so important and how they can use it to improve their nursing practice.

Key features include:

• All chapters linked to the new 2018 NMC standards of proficiency for registered nurses
• Updated learning features such as activities and case studies to help students apply the theory to practice.

Dr Philip Esterhuizen was a Lecturer in the School of Healthcare at the University of Leeds where he taught undergraduate and postgraduate students. After professional experience in a number of countries, his work included nurses at all levels where he taught and facilitated learning in a wide range of settings. By incorporating personal philosophies of care and caring into the facilitated sessions he supported reflection, promoted awareness and stimulated the development of personal caring attitudes in relation to the individual practitioner’s daily experiences.

Reflection and reflective practice have been central to Philip’s research, which incorporated the principles of confluent education linked to the professional socialisation of nurses.
