Psychiatric Nursing
註釋Addressing contemporary mental health issues facing psychiatric nursing today, as well as traditional clinical skills, this reference work links stress, trauma, and behavioural health problems to neurobiological function and immune system depletion. This framework pinpoints assessment and selection of intervention strategies especially useful in this era of managed care, focused care, and time-limited treatment. The book describes the biology of mental illness and psychopharmacological interventions, provides a DSM-IV diagnosis and a psychiatric nursing diagnosis to a patient condition within the context of the nursing care plan, and clearly demonstrates how nurses integrate neurobiological, behavioural, and social science theories and research into patient care.
