Description

Here is the first geriatric nursing book to incorporate standardized nursing diagnoses (NANDA), nursing sensitive out-comes (NOC), and nursing interventions (NIC) systems that are rapidly becoming universal standards. Readers will learn why the use and documentation of nurse's decisions and actions using these standardized languages is essential in the development of evidence-based practice, and to influence health policy decisions affecting older adults.

  • Each unit begins with an overview and a chapter on normal ageing to provide the basis for understanding the pathological parameters for each diagnosis
    • Common problems are presented in each chapter in a consistent format
  • Case studies of common problems are integrated throughout to illustrate the assessment data and diagnostic and treatment reasoning
