All hospitals have critically ill patients, and their management
depends upon the resources available. In many low income countries,
critically ill patients may be admitted to a critical care unit;
however, many are nursed on wards due to a lack of critical care
beds or simply die before they reach the hospital. This book
provides guidance on the unique situations for nurses working in
these challenging environments, while considering ethical
decision-making, providing appropriate services, and the types of
patients admitted. Topics covered include: working in a resource
limited environment; cultural awareness and international agendas;
provision and access to healthcare services; ethical considerations
in the context of resource limited environments; best practice and
knowledge regarding rehabilitation, pain management, managing a
major incident; relevant research concerning resource limited
environments. Critical Care Nursing in Resource Limited
Environments prepares readers to consider how best to utilise their
skills and deliver safe patient care within a resource limited
context. Each easy-to-read chapter provides core knowledge and
relevant research, as well as useful ideas and solutions, with
further reading sections to signpost readers to key international
resources. This text provides practical ideas for nurses working in
critical care and defence nursing, and acute areas in resource
limited environments. It can also be used to support educational
courses and pre-deployment training for nurses hoping to work in
Global Health.
