This book is the first veterinary textbook dedicated to nursing
care plans. It offers a broad overview of the theory and practice
of care planning in veterinary nursing, answering three key
questions: What are nursing care plans? Why should nursing care
plans be used in practice? How should nursing care plans be used in
practice? Author Helen Ballantyne provides basic definitions and
explanations which will be useful to those unfamiliar with nursing
care plans. For those veterinary nurses and technicians who are
using nursing care plans, the content stimulates debate and
discussion, by covering some of the philosophical and theoretical
aspects of nursing and drawing comparisons and contrasts between
the veterinary and human nursing roles and contexts. There is a
pressing need for veterinary nurses to establish themselves as
professionals and develop their unique role within the veterinary
care team. Nursing care plans are a core tool to support that
development. It is hoped that veterinary nurses may borrow tools
from the pages of this book or use it as a resource design their
unique care plans: either way, this practical guide will support
the application of care planning, no matter the species of the
animal kingdom for whom you are caring.
