Description
Fundamentals of Nursing and Midwifery is an introductory-level textbook designed specifically to meet the needs of undergraduate Australian and New Zealand nursing students. This comprehensive resource provides a detailed overview of key information with person-centered care highlighted throughout to provide a focus on the individualistic, interactive, and holistic nature of nursing and midwifery care. The approach introduces students to the why as well as the how by focusing not only on the patients physical healthcare needs, but also on the intellectual, emotional, sociocultural, and spiritual aspects of care.
