Gain the essential knowledge and skills you need to succeed as a
psychiatric nurse! Varcarolis' Essentials of Psychiatric-Mental
Health Nursing: A Communication Approach to Evidence Based Care,
5th Edition provides a concise, easy-to-understand guide to today's
leading psychiatric theories and therapeutic modalities.
Emphasizing evidence-based care, the book balances coverage of
scientifically based treatment approaches with insights into
effective communication skills, so you will be prepared to offer
the best possible care when you enter practice. Written by nursing
expert Chyllia D. Fosbre, this edition adds new Next Generation
NCLEX (R) (NGN) examination-style case studies to help you develop
critical thinking skills and prepare for the NGN exam. Applying
Critical Judgment questions introduce clinical situations in
psychiatric nursing and encourage critical thinking. Neurobiology
of the Brain feature includes illustrations depicting how a
disorder affects brain function and how drugs help to mitigate the
symptoms. Applying Evidence-Based Practice boxes in the clinical
chapters pose a question, walk you through the process of gathering
evidence-based data from a variety of sources, and present a plan
of care based on the evidence. Vignettes describe real-world
psychiatric patients and their disorders. Assessment Guidelines
boxes summarize the steps of patient assessment for various
disorders. Applying the Art boxes offer clinical scenarios
demonstrating the interaction between a nurse and a patient, the
nurse's perception of the interaction, and the mental health
nursing concepts in play. Potential Nursing Diagnoses tables list
possible nursing diagnoses for a particular disorder, based on ICNP
terminology, along with the associated signs and symptoms. Nursing
Interventions tables list interventions for a given disorder or
clinical situation, along with rationales for each intervention.
DSM-5 Criteria boxes identify the diagnostic criteria for most
major disorders. Integrative Care boxes highlight the different
types of therapy may be used to enhance treatment. Giddens Concept
boxes at the beginning of each chapter tie concepts to the topics
to be discussed. NEW! Next Generation NCLEX (R) (NGN)
examination-style case studies are included in the clinical
disorders chapters to promote critical thinking and help to prepare
you for the NGN exam.
