Abstract |
"Delivering essential content for APRN students focusing on population health, this award-winning text addresses the nurse's role in identifying and mitigating healthcare disparities at local, national, and global levels and provides guidance on how to conduct community assessments. The substantially updated fourth edition focuses on the broad role of APRNs in today's challenging healthcare environment, along with a completely new chapter on the Principles of Public and Community Health. The addition of case studies brings the content to life and explores a wider range of nursing roles. Two new editors bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to the text. Additionally, the fourth edition is updated with current national standards including the AACN Essentials and addresses implications of and lessons learned from COVID-19. The text disseminates successful strategies nurses have used to improve population outcomes and reinforces learning with a high-level application of activities that require the synthesis and integration of information learned. Its strong foundation in epidemiologic methodology includes coverage of mortality measures, testing validity and reliability, study designs, risk and casualty assessment, and data analysis and interpretation. This comprehensive yet succinctly written text includes engaging exercises and discussion questions to help students understand how to apply the content."--publisher. |
