Professional Nursing Concepts: Competencies for Quality Leadership (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781284296402)

Professional Nursing Concepts: Competencies for Quality Leadership continues its patient-centered, traditional approach to nursing education in an updated sixth edition. Anita Finkelman provides the foundation for pre-licensure nursing students to successfully transition from the classroom into practice. Grounded in the Institute of Medicine/National Academy of Medicine (IOM/NAM) five core competencies for healthcare professionals and the related Quality and Safety for Nursing Education (QSEN) competencies, the content progresses from the basics of the nursing profession and the dynamics of patient care into critical healthcare delivery discussions, ranging from health policy and political action to community health and leadership in nursing practice.Throughout the updated Sixth Edition students will remain engaged with discussion questions, critical thinking activities, and "Stop and Consider" sections that encourage readers to reflect on important chapter topics and concepts. Students can further interact with the content in "Working Backwards to Develop a Case", an in-text feature that allows them to creatively apply what they have learned to their own unique case scenarios, bringing these foundational concepts to life. Above all, Professional Nursing Concepts: Competencies for Quality Leadership, Sixth Edition reminds students that quality patient care is at the heart of the nursing profession.
