Description

Critical Thinking TACTICS for Nurses: Achieving the IOM Competencies is a reader-friendly guide to performing, learning and evaluating critical thinking in all aspects of nursing care. Award winning authors M. Gaie Rubenfeld and Barbara K. Scheffer draw on their research and expertise in teaching and practice to blend critical thinking components with the Institute of Medicine's (IOM) five core competencies: patient-centered care, interdisciplinary team work, evidence-based practice, informatics, and quality improvement. Issues addressed include critical thinking language and awareness enhancement, the impact of critical thinking on quality care, mentoring the critical thinking of staff and students and designing performance criteria for critical thinking. New to this edition: Significant updates and additional current references to all 5 IOM chapters. New Chapter 10 - Assessing Critical Thinking. New Chapter 11 - Thinking Realities of Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow. New “stories” from practicing nurses and others.
