Hold my hand (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798317320652)

In the field of nursing in long-term care facilities (Nursing Homes), healthcare professionals face a heavy workload and multiple simultaneous demands, such as patient care, interaction with family members, management of medical orders, and coordination with the healthcare team. While this field offers significant opportunities for professional growth and financial stability, it also requires a high level of organization and adaptability to perform efficiently and safely.

One of the essential aspects of this work is the proper documentation of every intervention performed, as it not only contributes to the continuity of patient care but also protects both the nurse and the institution from legal and administrative standpoints. For this purpose, digital platforms designed for clinical information recording and management are now employed, and their proper use is vital in daily practice.

This book describes key procedures that nurses must be familiar with, including the management of medical orders, incident documentation, patient admission and discharge processes, as well as the handling of common situations in the clinical setting. It also presents organizational strategies and practical tips to enhance workplace efficiency. Through detailed explanations, this work aims to ease the adaptation process for new professionals and serve as a useful resource for those already experienced in the field.

Often, newly graduated nurses begin their training without receiving a structured orientation on all aspects of the job, which can lead to insecurity and difficulties in practice. This book seeks to provide an accessible guide to help shorten the learning curve and improve the preparedness of professionals entering this field.

Caring for the elderly and for patients in vulnerable situations is a vital task for society. Therefore, this work aims to strengthen the role of nurses in these settings, promoting efficient, ethical, and compassionate care that benefits both patients and healthcare professionals.
