Description
Matteson & McConnell's Gerontological Nursing, 3rd Edition provides comprehensive, research-based information on nursing care of older
adults. Beginning with the basics, the text uses a systems approach to describe the aging process from wellness to illness. It also describes
physiological and psychological aspects of aging in detail, as well as assessment and practice in all settings using the nursing process.
