The Advanced Practice Registered Nurse as a Prescriber 1st Edition

k

[amazon template=iframe image2&asin=0813805244]

A new era of opportunity is emerging for advanced practice registered nurses (APRNs) to increasingly address gaps in access to quality healthcare.  APRNs must be prepared to practice to the full scope of their education and abilities.  As more and more states pass legislation enhancing prescriptive authority and fully autonomous practice for APRNs, a comprehensive resource on prescribing practices is needed.

The increasing demands of today’s fast-paced healthcare environment require a new level of prescriber expertise. Knowledge about medication characteristics and effectiveness must be accompanied by an understanding of the context and process of prescribing. The Advanced Practice Registered Nurse as a Prescriberprovides practicing APRNs and students with the information necessary to make fully informed, rational and ethical decisions as prescribers.

This book opens with an overview of the role of the APRN prescriber and moves on to discussing practical issues such as managing difficult patient situations, special considerations when prescribing controlled substances, the influence of pharmaceutical marketing, state regulation, and legal aspects of prescribing.  The book also examines barriers to prescribing, and the concluding chapter underscores key information to build cultural competence when prescribing.

An evidence-based resource for all APRNs and APRN students, The Advanced Practice Registered Nurse as a Prescriber provides a comprehensive and practical resource essential for APRNs in all advanced practice roles.

Fundamentals of Nursing Care: Concepts, Connections & Skills 2nd Edition

0803639740

[amazon template=iframe image2&asin=0803639740]

Take a fresh, new approach to nursing fundamentals that teaches students how to think, learn, and do while they make the ‘connections’ each step of the way. From the text through wealth of resources online at DavisPlus, the thoroughly revised and updated 2nd Edition continues to meet the needs of today’s students.

A practical, student-oriented focus helps LPN students to master safe and effective nursing care by developing the critical thinking and problem solving skills they need to excel in clinical practice.

 

I have been teaching the Practical Nurse for many years and have used many textbooks. I have found some texts much too wordy and laden with information above the level of PN education. That is not to say that a PN text should be simple – but it should be written at the level of the PN and inclusive of material necessary for them to have a positive outcome on the NCLEX exam. This text does both. I particularly like the easy read, the knowledge connection, the reasonable cost and the lay-out of the skill acquisition. Along with the Skill videos  that we purchased last year, teaching fundamentals is a dream.

It speaks to nursing informatics specialists and―in a departure from earlier editions of this title―to all nurses, regardless of their specialty, extending its usefulness as a text as noted below.

The book will include numerous relevant case studies to illustrate the theories and principles discussed, making it an ideal candidate for use within nursing curricula (both undergraduate and graduate), as well as continuing education and staff development programs. This book honors the format established by the first three editions by including a content array and questions to guide the reader. This 4th edition also includes numerous brief case studies that help to illustrate the theories and practices described within the various chapters. Most of these “mini-cases” are provided by members of professional nursing organizations that comprise the TIGER Initiative. These mini-cases are listed in the front matter and highlighted via formatting throughout the text.
