"--Doody's"
" there are plenty of lessons to be learned not only from the
experiences and insights of these authors, but also principles and
practices which they have found to be patient-centered, effective,
efficient, and economical."
-Loretta C. Ford, EdD, RN, PNP, FAAN, FAANP (From the
Foreword)
This fifth edition discusses the evolution and future of advance
practice nursing, primarily for APN faculty and APN/NP
practitioners as well as for leaders and administrators in
education. Fully updated and expanded, the book comprehensively
describes the historical, social, economic, and global contexts of
advanced practice nursing. The team of expert contributors provides
a wealth of insight into key issues of the day, such as the
mechanics of financial recognition of NPs, the effects of managed
care, and the globalization of advanced practice models.
The new edition also presents a fresh perspective on the role of
nurse practitioners in both small- and large-scale reform
initiatives-such as health promotion, disease management, the rapid
spread of global disease, and the diminished economic capacity of
many countries to meet standards for health care. Enriched with
case studies, key principles, and best practices, this book is a
must-have for all those invested in the current and future status
of advanced practice nursing. Key topics include:
Public relations strategies
Nurse-managed health centers
Adult health and gerontology care
Business, policy, and politics: success factors for practice
Global health, international developments, and future
challenges
