Description
This new edition of a well-established textbook introduces the Roper-Logan-Tierney Model, a widely used framework in university and clinical practice settings. The authors, Karen Holland and Jane Jenkins, guide students in applying the model to care for patients in various healthcare contexts.
The book is divided into two parts, starting with an exploration of the factors affecting human lifespan and the interconnectivity of the 'activities of living'. It then examines how these activities are influenced by biological, psychological, sociocultural, environmental, and politico-economic factors.
With discussion, 'real-life' examples, and thought-provoking exercises, this book provides a helpful framework for nursing assessment, planning, delivery, and evaluation of care. It is an ideal resource for pre-registration nursing students and others looking to improve their knowledge and understanding of evidence-based nursing care.
