Collaborative Practice in Palliative Care explores how different
professions work collaboratively across professional,
institutional, social, and cultural boundaries to enhance
palliative care. Analysing palliative care as an interaction
between different professionals, clients, and carers, and the
social context or community within which the interaction takes
place, it is grounded in up-to-date evidence, includes global
aspects of palliative care and cultural diversity as themes running
throughout the book, and is replete with examples of good and
innovative practice. Drawing on experiences from within traditional
specialist palliative care settings like hospices and community
palliative care services, as well as more generalist contexts of
the general hospital and primary care, this practical text
highlights the social or public health model of palliative care.
Designed to support active learning, it includes features such as
case studies, summaries, and pointers to other learning resources.
This text is an important reference for all professionals engaged
in palliative care, particularly those studying for
post-qualification programmes in the area.

When Dave Roberts relocates to the USA, his wife informs him that
they can only take what is 'absolutely essential'. Packing his
collection of football programmes (1,134 of them - football fans
are sticklers for statistics), Dave is aghast to be informed that
the programmes do not fall into that category. He must whittle down
his treasured archive to only what will fit inside a Tupperware
container the size of a Dan Brown hardback. 32 Programmes tells the
story of how Dave made the selection of his most important
programmes, and how the process brought back a flood of nostalgia
for simpler times. As the sights, sounds and smells of those 1,134
football matches return, the choices Dave makes reflect the twists
and turns that life takes. Finally, with just hours to go before
the flight, the container is full to the brim. One more programme
will be added to the collection - one that Dave never thought he
would see and which means more to him than any other. 32 Programmes
is the story of youthful football obsession, crushes on
disinterested girls, rubbish jobs and trying to impress skinheads.
But most of all, it is the story of a man's life and loves, of
family, friends and football.

therapeutic nursing care and explains how you can make the most of
opportunities to nurse the whole person. Key topics covered
include: Understanding the personal experience of
illnessCommunication and listening skills Developing nurse-patient

approaches Since it is common for those who are physically ill to
feel psychologically vulnerable, the book also has chapters

psychotic or display challenging behaviours. All chapters include
case studies and personal stories of illness to help illustrate the
range of practice opportunities for improving your nursing care of

and the latest developments in treatment. Detailed guidance on

and physical care to better treat the whole patient. Written by
experienced nurses, the book is laid out to enable quick access to
precise, targeted information on the vast majority of potential
clinical scenarios.
The Top Ten Reasons We Don't Read the Bible: 1. Although we are
Christians, we don't know where to start. 2. We don't think we will
understand the Bible. 3. Our preacher or priest tells us what the
Bible says every Sunday and that's enough for us. 4. All sorts of
people seem to do okay without reading the Bible. 5. We don't know
many people that spend their time reading the Bible. 6. The Bible
was written a long time ago and it doesn't apply to modern life
today. 7. We think we can lead a moral life without the help of the
Bible. 8. We are scared that we might find out that God does not
approve how we are living our lives. 9. People from different
denominations use the Bible to fight one another and call each
other stupid. We don't want to be part of it. 10. None of our
friends read the Bible. We all have reasons not to read the Bible.
Bubba's Bible is designed to inspire us to actually read the Bible.
It is written on a 10th grade reading level and is easy to follow
and understand. Its format is an entertaining way to find out about
the Bible. A recent Christian meets up with another Christian who
has studied the Bible. They approach the Bible in conversation
form. No preaching is involved. Bubba's Bible has several chapters
devoted to Satan and his work on this earth. Satan is presented to
the reader as having conversations with his Chief-of -Staff as he
directs the implementation of Evil. Bubba's Bible is an
entertaining approach to the Bible.

This book guides the reader from the building blocks of revenue
management, to pricing science and merchandising, and to broader
issues of setting objectives in support of a revenue strategy. The
discipline is evolving, and that evolution has been accelerated by
the COVID-19 pandemic. Leaders in hotel revenue management, and
more broadly in sales & marketing, need to understand these
changes, and lead and adapt accordingly. This will require a strong
foundation in analytics - not just modeling, but also business
analytics in support of a holistic strategy. As more of the tactics
of revenue management are executed through automation, and powered
by machine learning, revenue managers will become more focused on
strategy, and will need to think about revenue management in the
context of marketing, loyalty, and distribution. As the strategy
component of the discipline increases, so too must the breadth of
knowledge of revenue managers.
