Developing Holistic Care for Long-term Conditions focuses on how to
help people with long-term health conditions cope more effectively.
It brings together physical and mental health, offering a holistic
approach for students and practitioners in a variety of care
settings. Comprising four sections, this text introduces the policy
and background to caring for people with chronic illness as well as
the psychosocial impact of long-term conditions. Essential skills
for practice are explored including holistic assessment, symptom
control and the promotion of effective partnership between client
and carer in supporting coping, recovery and end of life care.
There is an emphasis on maximising individual health potential and
resilience with the role of nutrition, exercise, complementary
therapy and spirituality considered. The focus is on client centred
care which addresses the whole person, mind and body. The extensive
final section presents examples of key health issues where UK
national guidelines have been published including: Long-term
neurological conditions Diabetes Mental health Cancer Coronary
heart disease Older people This evidence-based book takes note of
the relevant National Service Frameworks and offers an informative
and pragmatic guide for all those learning about caring for the
chronically ill, as well as providing a useful reference work for
qualified nurses and allied health professionals.
