Produktbeschreibung

Reflective practice has been widely adopted as a successful method for developing nursing. The second edition of Transforming Nursing through Reflective Practice provides a wealth of new insights from practitioners actively involved in reflective practice in nursing research, education, clinical practice and practice development.

This invaluable book enables nurses to continually evaluate their own practice in order to inform their approaches to reflection; critique, develop and monitor their professional practice; and thereby improve the quality of their patient care. There is a greater emphasis in the new edition on transforming practice, the research base for reflective practice and grounding the reflective process in clinical practice.

Rezensionen

Transforming Nursing through Reflective Practice is a collection of reflective chapters which embrace practice from a clinical, ethical, philosophical and cognitive perspective...It is a powerful, empowering read and although not a beginner's guide, a starting point can be extracted from the earlier chapters.

If you are interested in nursing philosophy, taking reflective practice beyond that required by the UKCC or looking for great arguments to incorporate into a course essay, then might I recommend this book to you?
