Like the first edition, this is a seminal textbook for the advanced
practice nursing care of the seriously ill and dying. This
comprehensive work addresses all aspects of palliative care
including physical, psychological, social, and spiritual needs. It
brings to the forefront current issues of health equity, managing
through crisis, and meeting the needs of diverse populations. Each
chapter contains case examples and a strong evidence base to
support the highest quality of care. The text is written by leaders
in the field and includes authors who have pioneered the role of
the advanced practice nurse in palliative care. This volume offers
advanced practice content and practical resources for clinical
practice across all settings of care and encompassing all ages,
from pediatrics to geriatrics. This newly revised edition has been
reorganized to meet the needs of the APRN according to role
delineation and practice issues. It offers foundation information
on leadership, practice, and the various roles of the APRN as an
administrator, educator, policy advocate, and researcher. The
various settings of APRN work includes acute care settings
(clinical care unit, intensive care unit, and emergency
department), clinic (specialty care, primary care, and palliative
care), community, rehabilitation, residential facilities, and
telehealth. This edition also gives particular attention to special
populations, including chapters on health disparities, economic
disadvantages for urban dwellers, members of the LGBTQ+ community,
Veterans, and Survivorship. There are sections wholly devoted to
pediatric care, end of life communication, and the ethics APRNs
have to navigate on a daily basis. Written by current APRNs for
fellow APRNs, this text provides practical resources for clinical
practice across a variety of topics.
