and well-being and a special examination of Aboriginal and Torres
Strait Islander health issues. Part 2 unpacks key issues across a
range of clinical contexts that will be a key resource for clinical
practicums. Contexts covered include acute care, community nursing,
paediatric nursing, mental health nursing and aged care. Part 3

diverse, distinctive and emergent practice areas including
aesthetic nursing, military nursing and international nursing with
case studies and vignettes highlighting common issues and
challenges. Drawing on the expertise of a wide range of Australian
