Klappentext zu „An Integrated Approach to Generic Palliative Care “
Palliative care is within the remit of all health care professionals in any setting. An Integrated Approach to Generic Palliative Care is an accessible practical guide to the delivery of good palliative care, combining theory and practice, aimed at all members of the multidisplinary team. It explains and complements the government led End of Life Care programme which is being coordinated by Strategic health Authorities, incorporating the Gold Standards Framework, the Preferred Place of Care and the Liverpool Care Pathway.An integrated approach is advocated throughout this book- in all sections the orthodox approach to treatments and care is discussed alongside a complementary approach. This text provides a highly practical approach to pain and symptom approach support including a pain assessment tool for the severely cognitively impaired and a detailed account on how to titrate morphine to individual patients. It also explores hope and spiritual pain showing that these two existential notions are actually part of every day practice.e
Combining the theory and practice of palliative care, An Integrated Approach to Generic Palliative Care covers the psychosocial, spiritual, and physical needs of the patient as well as the treatment and care of the dying in all settings in major diseases. Throughout, the orthodox approach to treatments and care are discussed along side a complementary approach. This evidence-based text is an invaluable read for all health professionals who want to take an intelligent and insightful approach to patients for whom cure is not possible.

Pressezitat
"However, I have found myself referring to this book in recent months far more than some of the bigger, more established, textbooks – and if the measure of a good book is how well thumbed the pages become, then the author is on to a winner. ( European Journal of Palliative Care , 2010) "The author s warmth, enthusiasm and concern for patients, their families and the professionals who care for them, combined with her scholarship, shine throughout this book. I recommend it to anyone with an interest in the care of people approaching the end of their lives in any setting." ( Palliative Medicine , 2009) "This book will be a very welcome addition to the undergraduate curriculum for clinicians seeking to specialize in palliative care." ( International Journal of Palliative Nursing , 2009) "There is a wealth of knowledge and experience for nursing students and newly qualified nurses seeking direction.... I would recommend this for reference on general medical wards and units where patients are receiving end of life care." ( Nursing Standard , April 2009)
