A nurse's field guide to improving health outcomes for distinct
patient populations.This practical text is distinguished by its
in-depth coverage of populations, ranging from opioid-addicted
veterans to young children suffering from obesity. Focused on the
educational needs of students in undergraduate and bridge programs,
this book is grounded in evidence-based practice, in-depth content,
and clinical case studies. Five sections address community-based
health care, including home and rural health; school-based,
primary, acute and long-term care; and medical homes and palliative
care. Each section begins with an overview chapter addressing
fundamental concepts, characteristic trends, expenditures, and
critical considerations. Subsequent chapters provide descriptions
of varied patient populations, relevant care settings, and examples
of the RN's role within each setting. Chapters conclude with a case
study illustrating a day in the life of a typical nurse, which
includes assessing for and evaluating present symptoms, demographic
information, social and environmental determinants, and medical
background. Chapters also encompass advocacy and policy roles, care
access, emergency preparedness, and community resiliency. Key
