内容

???I would recommend each home purchase a copy.??? ??? Ian Turner, Chair, Registered Nursing Home Association, UK ???Identifies a gap in the sector and offers a practical means of addressing the need.??? ??? Des Kelly, OBE, Executive Director, National Care Forum, UK The Care Home Handbook has one aim: to improve the care and wellbeing of residents in care homes. It provides an extensive overview of current knowledge for all nurses and healthcare assistants working in care homes, enabling these organisations to meet the essential standards of care required of them. This invaluable, unique and jargon–free resource helps healthcare professionals deliver skilful care, prevent poor practice, and build their knowledge and confidence when working with older people. It includes material on the resident???s journey, values and standards, core nursing skills, common clinical conditions, medicines management, infection control and risk. Grounded in everyday practice, The Care Home Handbook promotes professional and person–centred care that is safe, high quality and compassionate.
