Description
Working with people living with complex health needs is a fundamental part of the nursing role. This book provides a comprehensive understanding of the biological, social, and psychological factors that add complexity to care. It covers key concepts such as polypharmacy and the social and political determinants of health, as well as practical skills in assessment and shared decision making. The book is mapped to the 2018 NMC Standards of Proficiency and features insights from experts in their own practice. Case studies explore what complexity means in action, encouraging you to reflect on your own experiences. This book is a valuable resource for nurses working in primary and secondary settings, as well as the voluntary sector.
