Description

This book makes a compelling argument for an immediate and comprehensive shift in the nursing education curriculum, from an acute care to a gerontological nursing care focus. It is important reading for deans and faculty in schools of nursing, administrators in long-term care facilities and community health agencies, and for practicing nurses caring for the elderly.
