The pandemic has made unpaid care more visible through its absence, whilst also increasing the need for it.
Drawing on a range of research projects covering Canada, Germany, Norway, Sweden, the UK and the US, this book documents a broad spectrum of unpaid work performed by residents, relatives, volunteers and staff in nursing homes.
It demonstrates how boundaries between paid and unpaid work are flexible, varying considerably with conditions, time, place and intersectional populations.
By examining the complex labour process within nursing homes, this book provides insight and understanding which will be critical in planning for nursing home care post-pandemic.

Integrated Care and Fall Prevention in Active and Healthy Aging |
| |
Patrik Eklund/ 9781799844112/ Price:US$ 380.00
|
| |
|
|
In today’s world, healthy aging and a fulfilling lifestyle are important to older members of society, with many opting to remain as independent and mobile as possible for as long as possible. However, elderly individuals tend to have a variety of functional limitations that can increase the likelihood of debilitating falls and injuries. Assessments of functionality are very often only performed following an accident, which implies a hindsight bias because results do not necessarily reflect pre-accidental performance capacities. Furthermore, these belated measures do little to reduce the likelihood of new falls. As such, it is imperative that personalized preventative approaches are taken to prevent falls.
Integrated Care and Fall Prevention in Active and Healthy Aging contains state-of-the-art research and practices related to integrated care, fall prevention, and aging throughout areas ranging from medical to social aspects of care, health economy, standards, pathways and information scopes, practices and guidelines, technology, etc. Covering topics such as active care and healthy aging, it is ideal for doctors, gerontologists, nursing home and long-care facility staff, scientists, researchers, students, academicians, and practitioners working in care pathways involving good practices of fall prevention in home care and community care settings.

Nursing Ethics, 3-Vols/Set. |
| |
Johnstone, Megan-Jane/ 9781473902251/ Price:GBP 525.00
|
| |
|
|
By its very nature, nursing ethics is a subject that the profession is required to constantly grapple with. The history of writing on this topic offers a fascinating insight into how nursing as a profession has developed over time and reacted to the ethical issues and questions raised around the role of nurses and their interactions with patients.
Nursing ethics has not always enjoyed the status that it has today. Its development, legitimation and recognition as a distinctive field of inquiry have been an arduous project and one which has not always been well documented. These three volumes will redress this oversight via the systematic identification and inclusion of foundational and leading works on nursing ethics which have influenced the international development of nursing ethics as a discourse and practice.
The collection is categorised and sorted thematically into three volumes to enable clear navigation and understanding of the material. An introduction to each volume written by the editor frames the set, providing guidance and context.
Volume 1: Developing theoretical foundations for nursing ethics
Volume 2: Nursing ethics pedagogy and praxis
Volume 3: Politics and future directions of nursing ethics

Over a third of all consultations in general practice are now conducted by nurses. The consultation is the key element of primary care, with patients being more satisfied with the care given by clinicians who have good communication skills. Poor communication or dissatisfaction with a consultation is reported to be one reason why patients decide not to attend or do not take a prescribed treatment. Patients need to be satisfied with the consultation, understand their condition and understand the reasons for their treatment or management plan. This book has been written to reinforce good consultation and communication skills and highlights areas where readers might wish to to review and improve their own consultation techniques. This is done though case studies and scenarios that are likely to be common in many practices. Although the text and scenarios relate to practice nurse consultations, the content can be transferred to all primary care nursing settings. |

Reducing Restraints in Health and Social Care: Practice and Policy Perspectives. |
| |
Hughes, Rhidian/ 9781856423762/ Price:GBP 29.99
|
| |
|
|
|
For some time there has been concern about the use of restraint on people who use health and social care services. The term restraint is used to cover a wide range of activities by means of which an individual’s freedom of movement is restricted. Challenging behaviours, organisational cultures and resource pressures all infl uence the use of restraint. The behaviours or situations that give rise to health and social care staff considering the use of restraint need to be understood, and there should be much greater awareness of therapeutic approaches, which are at the core of health and social care practice. This book has been produced so that the problems surrounding the use of restraints across a range of health and social care settings can be better understood. Ultimately it is hoped that the book will contribute, in some way, to levering improvements in how we understand restraint and practically in the care people receive. It is designed to appeal to a wide readership, including health and social care professionals, researchers, students and lecturers. Chapters assume no specialist knowledge. |

Fundamental Aspects of Nursing Adults with Respiratory Disorders. |
| |
Scullion, Jane E./ 9781856423113/ Price:GBP 19.99
|
| |
|
|
|
Respiratory patients present in all specialties and all health care professionals will at some time look after patients with respiratory conditions either as an acute event or as the consequence of chronic disease. This book explores the more common respiratory disorders that are seen both in the hospital sector and in primary care. It provides the reader with essential information about the diseases and conditions and gives details of care management and treatment options. Each chapter is useful as a stand alone text and is presented fully referenced. This is an extremely timely text as there is a growing burden on health care services, the economy, and on individual patients and their carers as a result of respiratory disorders. In the United Kingdom one in five deaths occurs as the result of respiratory disease with more deaths occurring from this group of disease than from coronary heart disease or non-respiratory cancers. It is estimated that around one in eight admissions to the acute sector are as a consequence of respiratory disorders as too are many consultations and house calls in primary care. Readership: This will be a useful reference book for both students and qualified nurses seeking a basic understanding of respiratory disease, as well other health care professionals with an interest in the field. |

The United States is still fighting World War II. Cherry Ames is still an Army Nurse, this time aloft--as a flight nurse. Cherry is reunited with her corpsman Bunce--the two of them are in sole charge of ferrying severely wounded men out of the battlefield and to the nearest Army hospital. Much to Pilot Wade Cooper's chagrin, he has been taken off bomber duty to fly the wounded to safety--until Cherry makes him see otherwise. Off duty, the nurses "adopt" 6-year-old Muriel Grainger, who has known nothing but war in her short life, and whose mother has been killed by the Germans. Her father is often out on mysterious errands that cause some to label him a "spy." Cherry makes it her risky business to find out if this is truth or rumor. |

Bryman, Alan/ 9781412911634/ Price:GBP 675.00
|
| |
|
|
|
Mixed methods research has become one of the major areas of growth in social research methodology in the last 10 years. The divisions between quantitative and qualitative research have increasingly given way to imaginative ways of combining the two approaches and a growing acceptance of adopting a multi-method approach.
Much of the literature on mixed-methods research is highly dispersed in a wide variety of journals and other publications. A great deal of it is not well known and quite a lot of it is inaccessible. Alan Bryman, widely recognized as an authority on the subject, brings together the key articles in this important field to form a definitive resource collection.
Volume I outlinines the epistemological and ontological issues relating to the debate about quantitative and qualitative research and how these have an impact on the possibility of mixing methods.
Volume II is concerned with the combination of different methods within quantitative research and within qualitative research.
Volume III addresses the methodological issues involved in combining quantitative and qualitative research - the different ways in which mixed-methods research is actually accomplished.
Volume IV continues the kinds of material used in Volume III but will also include some examples of combining quantitative and qualitative research. |

This book begins by asking you to try to imagine the life you have now changing beyond all recognition. One day you wake up and don't know where you are. You ask someone near you where you are but they seem unable to understand your question. Why do they not understand, what is wrong with them? It is hard to contemplate this and to fully comprehend the emotional turmoil caused by the symptoms of a Dementia type illness. This book has been written with the intention of helping its readers to understand the perspective of the person who has been labelled as suffering with dementia, as well as that of the carers and the professionals. It is split into two sections to help the reader identify the parts they need to read at different times or for varying purposes. Section 1 offers information and debate about the theoretical issues and explanations of Dementia and memory loss. This includes explanations of what Dementia actually is and where it comes from in the first place. Section 2 moves into the more practical side of this text. Many areas of concern for carers and professionals alike are similar. This section brings their ideas and perspectives together so that they might be able to benefit from each other. |

About the book The education of the workforce and the continuing professional development of the current workforce is the business of all organisations. The level, scope, type and nature of education may vary but the essence is the same: education is about encouraging, challenging and broadening horizons at the same time as preparing people to 'do the job'. This book tells the story of how the Macmillan National Institute of Education was conceived and its development along the way. It is, as such, a case study of how an education team, given the freedom to grow and innovate, achieved an outcome that benefited both the practitioner and the educator. It also presents an account of partnership working between organisations & often challenging, often frustrating, but with positive end results. The chapters look at what work-based learning is, how to identify the learning and development needs of the workforce, the value of mentorship, role transition, succession planning and future directions of workforce development. Finally, the editors have drawn on the knowledge gained and lessons learnt from their experiences to offer a reflective model for evaluating the effectiveness of continuing professional development to assist readers in planning educational initiatives for the future. |

Fundamental Aspects of Complementary Therapies and Health. |
| |
Genders, Nicky/ 9781856422697/ Price:GBP 14.99
|
| |
|
|
|
Complementary and alternative medecine (CAM) has grown substantially in popularity over recent years. A growing number of health care practitioners, particularly nurses and midwives, are delivering care where CAM therapies are part of the treatment regime. Furthermore, patient knowledge about, choice of and access to CAM has led to many patients and clients requesting complementary therapies alongside orthodox care. In the current climate it is therefore imperative that nurses understand the issues surrounding the use of CAM by patients and clients in their care. This introductory text offers an overview of the range of complementary therapies available in the UK, and will help give the practitioner an essential understanding of the nature of each therapy and the existing evidence base so that they can make informed judgements for the benefit of patients. It will also be a useful resource for patients and clients themselves. |

Clinical Supervision in Palliative Care. |
| |
Bayliss, Jean/ 9781856422918/ Price:GBP 24.99
|
| |
|
|
|
Clinical supervision has been researched, promoted, and proven as a very effective strategy for constantly developing skills, for maintaining and raising standards, for encouraging personal and professional developement, and for building team ethos. This book explores clinical supervision and the qualities, skills, models and ethics needed to ensure success. Palliative care is arguably the most stressful area of nursing and care work, as well as being one of the most rewarding. It is work that requires a high level of practical skill, which can help the dying person to feel more comfortable and confident. But practical skills, valuable though they are, are not enough. Palliative care demands from its practitioners an equally high level of compassion and resilience. Offering this combination of practical comfort and deeply felt concerned support is hugely demanding. This book is an attempt to suggest a strategy for professional help which will also enhance patient and client care. Clinical Supervision for Palliative Care has been written as a workbook. You will find pauses for reflection and lots of questions to consider and answer. Good Palliative Care is based on good communication - so you are asked to interact with the text. The book was researched with a range of professionals working in the field, and with some of those receiving their care. This book will encourage implementation of Clinical Supervision across the widening field of Palliative Care - not only because it will support and sustain practitioners, who are not always good at looking after themselves, but because it will also fulfil the ultimate goal of all of us - the best possible care of dying people, helping them to the death that they want, and easing their suffering and that of those closest to them. Jean Bayliss is a Consultant and Tainer in Counselling, Education and Guidancevision. |

Read, Sue/ 9781856422185/ Price:GBP 29.99
|
| |
|
|
|
This book is aimed at practitioners, service managers and policy makers. It helps to transfer knowledge between the learning disability and palliative care ‘communities’ and to play a part in helping people with learning disabilities to access high quality services at the end of their lives. This arises out of a commitment to value people with learning disabilities equitably and to ensure that their rights are honoured in the same way as those of other citizens. While people lived in institutions, their deaths as well as their lives passed unnoticed. Now that they live in and are part of, local communities, it is important that they are cared for with dignity and skill and that they are missed and mourned like other people. Sue Read has been a Lecturer in Nursing (Learning Disability) for fifteen years. |

| |
/ 9781856423007/ Price:GBP 29.99
|
| |
|
|
|
Unitil recently, people with a personality disorder have received a 'bad press' and a raw deal in the health services. This situation is now changing with the advent of both legal and policy changes and some foundation evidence that personality disorder has both a physiological basis and associations with early childhood trauma. In addition, a recent systematic review has shown the poor quality of research evidence for the effectiveness of nursing interventions with people with a personality disorder. As a consequence, this book presents discussion of, and up-to-date evidence for: - The meaning and types of 'personality disorder' - The current policy context - Education, training and support issues - Cultural, spiritual, ethical, sexuality and gender issues - Risk assessment and management of the individual with personality disorder - Specific nursing/multidisciplinary interventions - Community nursing issues - Observation with engagement - Dual diagnosis and problematic substance use - The social consequences of a personality disorder diagnosis This informative and unique book is an invaluable text for many practitioners, including: newly-qualified nurses who are considering a career in forensic nursing, mental helath branch student nurses, service users, informal carers, healthcare support workers, non-nursing mental health professionals, prison nurses, prison officers and workers in social care. |

Trends in Wound Care, volume IV. |
| |
Cutting, Keith/ 9781856423090/ Price:GBP 29.99
|
| |
|
|
|
The fourth volume of Trends in Wound Care focuses on two particular wound types: leg ulcers and pressure ulcers. These wounds account for a large proportion of the demands made on the time and financial resources available within wound care. It is therefore important that we equip ourselves with the available knowledge in order to make best use of these resources. In addition, care of patients with leg ulcers and pressure ulcers is of topical interest. This is in some part due to the difficulty in ascertaining prevalence rates as recent, accurate and widespread prevalence data of these wounds is not available in the public domain. It would seem appropriate that the move towards bench-marking would encourage the gathering and publication of this data on a national scale. Within the overall theme in this volume the focus remains on improving patient outcomes and reducing morbidity. It is for this reason that chapters included also examine assessment, principles of management and key considerations in dressing selection. We hope that you enjoy this latest addition to the Trends in Wound Care series that provides an update and easy reference source within this fascinating field of care. |

|
|
This is the 2nd edition of the best selling book Learning Journals and Critical Incidents which has been widely acknowledged for its contribution to the understanding of reflection and reflective practice. This edition has been thoroughly updated to recognise changes and developments in both theory and practice over recent years. The book illustrates how reflective practice can fulfil a fundamental need for all health care professionals to make sense of their clinical experience. It shows how these sense-making processes are complex and need to be sustained over time. A variety of models are represented, classified and critiqued. Models which view reflection as orderly, cognitive, linear, step-by-step processes are set alongside those which view reflection as a more messy, value-laden, cyclical and context-bound activity. Practical suggestions of how to use them are given and their advantages and limitations are discussed. The clinical implications of the principles and processes associated with reflective practice are discussed in the text and are then drawn together in conclusion. Tony Ghaye is C.E.O of The Inctitue of Reflective Practice. He works to support reflective health care teams and build reflective organisations in the UK and Europe. He is Visiting Professor at LuleA?A? University, Sweden and the University of Wales-NEWI. He is editor-in-chief of the peer reviewed journal Reflective Practice.

Neuroscience Nursing: Assessment and patient management. |
| |
Woodward, Sue/ 9781856423083/ Price:GBP 39.99
|
| |
|
|
|
This book brings together the best of the neuroscience articles that have been published in the British Journal of Nursing since April 2004. Together they provide an essential reference for nurses working with people with neurological problems in a variety of settings from critical care and tertiary referral centres with specialist neuroscience units, through to stroke services and primary care teams. The book is divided into three sections. The first section focuses on aspects of assessment relevant to neurological patients, the second covers a variety of issues in the management of patients with acute neurological conditions, including some key aspects of neuroscience critical care practice, and the final section focuses on the management of patients with long-term neurological conditions. The aim of this book is to identify key areas of practice and evidence of current best care rather than to provide the definitive neuroscience nursing text. The fact that such a wide range of papers has been published over such a short space of time in one generic nursing journal is testament to the importance of the subject for all practicing nurses. With over 10 million people in the UK suffering from a neurological problems one can see the need for nurses everywhere to have access to resources to help them understand and implement appropriate care for these patients. |

This multi-contributor text focuses on some of the hidden challenges and aspects found in palliative care provision. The authors bring a wealth of insight into the difficult or challenging questions that are not always discussed openly in palliative care settings. It explores the differences between what is said openly by practitioners and how that is then documented in patients’ records. The liberal reader will find this book of interest and the honesty challenging at all levels. Brian Nyatanga is a Macmillan Senior Lecturer at the University of Central England, Birmingham. Maxine Astley-Pepper is a Macmillan Senior Lecturer at the University of Central England, Birmingham. |

Birthing Positions. |
| |
Coppen, R./ 9781856422567/ Price:GBP 29.99
|
| |
|
|
|
Women have been delivering in the upright position for centuries. The evidence is clear that upright birthing positions confer greater advantage than nonupright positions, such as recumbent, lateral and semi-recumbent. Yet in present day practice, the majority of women are still delivering ‘flat’ on the bed. The author argues that women are not aware of the different positions and that midwives are not always prepared to deliver them in their position of choice. The text looks at the evidence for and against the use of different birthing positions. A systematic review of the evidence from a historical, anthropological and scientific perspective is discussed. The results of a randomised controlled trial on women’s decision making and choice of birthing positions is included as well as midwives’ views of birthing positions and the extent to which they influence women. |

The collection of chapters in this companion volume to Participation and Empowerment proceeds to explore the issues around these contested roles more thoroughly.

Some new arenas or dimensions of exclusion are introduced, such as issues around sexuality, and ways of overcoming or combating these problems. All the contributors are concerned to illuminate the potential for raising the efficacy and quality of the healthcare process by greater involvement of the end-user and to demonstrate the mutual nature of the transaction.

The number of individuals suffering from an eating disorder is steadily increasing. Given the complex nature of these disorders and the fact that the symptoms exhibited by the sufferer vary greatly, a significant number of these cases go undiagnosed and untreated, leading to other health problems. Early detection is vital. This book examines the different aspects of eating disorders, including chapters on: epidemiology of anorexia; epidemiology of bulimia; rising incidents of eating disorders among males; aetiology and risk factors for development; clinical features of the onset of anorexia and bulimia; diagnosis of anorexia and bulimia; associated health problems; management and treatment of eating disorders; prognosis and long-term outcomes and, finally, useful names and addresses of associations and organisations.

This second edition updates the highly successful first edition published in 1997. It gives a comprehensive view of obstetrics, gynaecology and family planning as it applies to primary care. The topics examined include: gynaecology; the menopause; contraception; preconception care; infertility; pregnancy and the puerperium; common conditions and drug use in pregnancy and the puerperium and breast disorder. Although initially written for the GP, the clear concise presentation means that this text is useful for practice nurses, family planning doctors and nurses, community midwives and health visitors. .
