Long-term care settings are highly regulated environments where the emphasis historically has been on compliance. Many misconceptions persist about practice in nursing homes, and these go largely unaddressed within nursing education programs. Herein lines one of the significant barriers to improving nursing home care.

Practice & Leadership in Nursing Homes dispels many misconceptions and provides a foundation for clinical practice in a unique, exciting setting—illustrating how high-quality nursing care can result in positive resident outcomes. This book challenges educators and students to look beyond incorrect perceptions and negative attitudes to see a vibrant, growing healthcare sector ripe for nurses to make an impact and build rewarding careers.

Expert authors cover the following and more:

• Comprehensive care planning
• Models of care delivery
• Common geriatric syndromes
• Staff development and training
• Nursing home financing and regulatory information
