Beschreibung
Older People and Mental Health Nursing provides an evidence-based guide to caring for the growing number of older people with mental health issues. It focuses on the knowledge and key skills which practitioners require to work effectively with older people who have, or are at risk of developing, mental health needs. Divided into five sections, Older People and Mental Health Nursing first explores the background, historical perspectives and influences on mental health care in later life. It then looks at the ethical and legal issues involved, therapeutic relationships, and the values underpinning support and care. Part three focuses on aspects which have traditionally been neglected in mental health care, including culture, religion and sexuality. Part four details specific mental health issues for older people, including delirium, depression, and dementia. The final section explores future trends in older people's mental health and offers ideas on how nursing is developing, and could develop, to address these. * Offers a practical evidence-based guide to the care of older people with mental health conditions * Includes thought provoking practice examples throughout * Contains guidelines for nursing practice & therapeutic interventions * Includes case studies and reflective scenarios * Written by experts in the field
Rezensionen
"This is a good book which is well written and very readable. Its key success is in the inclusion of aspects of older persons' mental health care which have traditionally been neglected in the literature." (Journal of Dementia Care, July/August 2008) "A good purchase for those specialising in the nursing of older people." (Primary Health Care) "This is a useful book for student nurses and those wishing to gain a fundamental understanding of mental health needs in older people." (Journal of Community Nursing) "Clear, precise and easy to follow...I am really interested in working with the older adult and found this book great to read and full of useful information. This book will be great reference for now and after I am finished with my training." (Daniel Jenks; 3rd year nursing student; University of West Scotland) "A good purchase for those specialising in the nursing of older people."
