Riassunto:

This is an essential resource for student nurses as they begin to develop their knowledge and understanding of the requirements for safe practice in healthcare. Nurses are more accountable than ever to the public, patients, their employers and the profession and it is vital that they have a clear understanding of the legal, ethical and professional dilemmas they will face in the course of their professional career. The book contains activities and case studies throughout the text to illustrate key principles and demonstrate how the law is applied in the context of nursing care.
