This book is a brilliant blend of health policy and nursing
practice. It identifies the forces that have dominated change in
the national health systems of industrialised countries - the shift
of priorities from hospital to ambulatory care, the vast expansion
in modern technology, the rise in expenditures and efforts at
cost-containment, the renewed emphasis on disease prevention and
health promotion. At the same time, this book brings to life the
impact of these forces and the actual practice of nursing,
demonstrating how 'technology' and 'caring' can be harmonised. It
shows through international case studies ways for nurses to
maximise their contribution to patient care and to contribute to
the improved effectiveness of national health systems.' Milton I
Roemer, in the Foreword
