Description
This psychiatric nursing text includes case studies and nursing care plans that present nursing care using the psychotherapeutic management approach, to help students understand the application of the nursing process. The book's psychotherapeutic management approach stresses the therapeutic nurse-patient relationship, psychopharmacology and milieu management. There is a unit on psychopharmacology, as well as information on specific drugs in clinical chapters that emphasize their action, uses and implications for nursing care. Each chapter ends with review questions and critical-thinking questions. This second edition features an increased number of clinical examples throughout, illustrating real-life cases to help students understand clinical applications. - from Amzon
