Juta's Manual Of Nursing: Volume 1 - Fundamental And General Nursing (Paperback, 3rd Edition)

Nursing care remains at the cutting edge of science as innovations in patient care continuously evolve. However, fundamental and general skills are still necessary to develop the clinical reasoning skills a nurse requires in order to provide safe, high-quality care to patients and communities.

Each chapter contains:
• The prerequisite knowledge necessary for study of that chapter, to ensure integration with other core subjects

• Relevant medico-legal considerations
• Key concepts and terminology as well as new vocabulary
