Summary:
A Contemporary Nursing Process re-envisions the practice of nursingby configuring caring in terms of the person the nurse cares for.
Locsin and Purnell stress the importance of knowing the patient, and
differentiating the person from the disease. This text addresses this
highly relevant issue, and provides a wealth of insight on how to
care for the patient on a personal level, while still professionally
administering clinical treatment. Chapters discuss: How to appreciate
persons as participants in their care, rather than as objects of care
The ideal of care versus the practical demands of care Technological
advancements shaping human life and nursing The consequences of "not
knowing" the patient on a personal level
