Omschrijving
Up to date with current policy, this text takes a strong case study approach to help students to tackle anxiety about this difficult aspect of their job. Case studies are followed by reflective questions, to develop reflection and critical thinking.
This book provides an excellent introduction to the principles and practices of palliative care in health care. The case studies and opportunities for reflection allow the practitioner to develop an understanding of how palliative care principles can be applied in practice settings for a variety of life limiting conditions.
This book aims to present the essence of palliative care for undergraduate students in nursing and allied health; my opinion was that it would not do any harm to make medical students read it as well. It covers care and compassion, the holistic approach, care planning, carers’ needs, the interprofessional team, communication, ethical issues, end of life care, death and dying and, finally, self-care. There are numerous illustrative case scenarios and lists of reflection points. Good stuff.
