More About This Title Public Health Nursing - A Textbook for HealthVisitors, School Nurses and Occupational HealthNurses
English
Written by relevant experts in the field, this practical textbook uniquely explores the three main specialties of Public Health Nursing: Health Visiting, School Nursing and Occupational Health Nursing. A particular strength of the book is the way it shows the diversity of each discipline and how they each address Public Health in vastly different ways according to the needs of their relevant population.
This will be essential reading for all students on the Specialist Community Public Health Nursing (SCPHN) programmes offered across the UK.
Key features:
- Focuses on the specialist community public health nursing part of the NMC register
- Multidisciplinary, with contributors from all three specialisms
- Concerned with improving the health of the population, rather than treating the diseases of individual patients
- Focuses on practice and competencies
