Summary:

A unique "mentor in a pocket" handbook covering one of the most
emotionally-trying experiences nurses face From the co-director of
Johns Hopkins University's neuropsychiatry clinic and senior faculty
member at the Copper Ridge Institute comes the first pocket-sized
reference for generalist nurses on care for patients with dementia,
one of the most emotionally-trying disorders they will face in
clinical practice. Part of McGraw-Hill's Nurse to Nurse series, this
title includes PDA download of the entire text, vignettes, nursing
alerts that provide just-in-time information on complex or
particularly important aspects of patient care, and Therapeutic
Dialogue Boxes that provide nurses with specific communication
solutions for both patients and their families. Coated flex-binding
repels stains. The new Nurse to Nurse series is specifically designed
to simulate the teaching experience nurses learn best from: trusted
mentors carefully explaining what they must do in specific clinical
situtions. Written in a consistent, single-author voice, this series
brings the wisdom and experience of some of the foremost experts to
non-specialist nurses in clinical care.
