Description

In Realities of Canadian Nursing, influential scholars throughout Canada give voice to the unheard concerns of nurses and go to great lengths to ensure the text offers readers more than an update on current and pressing professional, legal, ethical, political, social, economic, and environmental issues in nursing and healthcare. In chapter 1 of the text, authors Carol McDonald PhD, RN and Marjorie McIntyre RN, PhD offer a Framework for Analysis, which gives students and educators a shared and organized format through which to identify, analyze, and strategize about solving the issues. Students will be inspired to influence professional associations, collective bargaining units, government, and workplace and participate in political action. In this edition, the authors will retain the content and features that have made this text the mostly widely used issues and trends book in the Canada, while adding new coverage of Canada’s Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) and the subsequent Calls to Action. Student and Instructor resources on thePoint will help prepare students for the NCLEX and help faculty save time as well as integrate their course resources with their required text.
