Professional Issues in Primary Care Nursing (1405187557) cover image

As both [practice and walk-in centre] nurses continue to adapt to the constant on-going change demanded by both the public and the government paymasters they will face ever-growing self questioning about their role responsibilities and their need to remain competent, knowledgeable and safe practitioners.
From the foreword by Professor Dame Betty Kershaw, DBE, FRCN, Education Advisor, The Royal College of Nursing, President of the Scholarship Society for Nurses and Midwives

This book enables nurses to get to grips with the professional issues that affect their practice in primary care.  It is structured around the RCN domains of practice and considers a wide variety of issues including health promotion, reflective practice and leadership. Part One sets the scene for the domains of practice which follow and considers the unique aspects of practice and walk-in centre nursing. Part Two considers practical aspects of each of the RCN domains of practice in turn and is centred around nurse–patient relationships.

  • Provides greater understanding of issues that affect the nature of practice
  • Addresses the considerable changes in practice nursing and walk-in centres
  • Evidence-based but also contains personal experiences
  • Suitable for nurses undertaking community specialist practitioner degree courses, qualified practice nurses and walk-in centre staff
