Description

Rheumatic diseases are the most frequent self-reported, long-standing conditions in the UK and there is an increasing demand for rheumatology services in both the hospital and community based environments. It is therefore essential that the primary health care team have the necessary knowledge and skills to provide a high quality service.

This very practical book covers all aspects of caring for people with rheumatic diseases. It discusses the physiological and psychological aspects of the diseases, examines drug therapy and drug monitoring and looks at the varied ways in which the professional can help the client.
