Description
Using empirical case studies, this key text explores a range of key practice issues, and evaluates the contribution which nursing makes
in the community. The text emphasizes, explores and evaluates three themes: The shift from secondary to primary care --Establishing needs
and priority setting --And the role of evaluation in evidence-based practice. Clearly written by leading commentators in nursing, policy
and research, this book provides an evidence-based resource for all community nurses.
