Additional Book Details

Assessment is an essential part of mental-health nursing and as such a core learning requirement for pre-registration nursing students. Getting assessment right is essential for the nursing student in order for them to become an effective practitioner. Many books on assessment are very theoretical. This is a practical, hands-on guide to the assessment process, underpinned by the latest evidence. The book explains the core principles through running case studies, so that readers can see how each decision they make impacts on the person in their care.



Key features:


Assessment principles are applied across a variety of modern nursing settings that you may find yourself working in as a registered nurse
Each chapter is linked to the relevant NMC standards and Essential Skills Clusters so you know you are meeting the professional requirements
Activities throughout help you to think critically and develop essential graduate skills.
