Product Description
Product Description
C.Dickie, Lecturer of Adult Nursing, University of the West of Scotland, UK
"This is an excellent book for anyone starting out on the Common Foundation year of their nursing degree, and as a reference to those further into their degree, on placement, or newly qualified. The care planning process is very well introduced using models and frameworks of care, with thorough explanations and visual aids ... I would have no hesitation in recommending this book to fellow students and colleagues, and I will use it through the remainder of my degree and beyond."
Conor Hamilton, Student Nurse, Queens University Belfast, UK
"A highly useful and concise book that is also a practical size to carry around to lectures. This book is accurately planned and is a straight forward easy to read student guide to care planning. I found it informative and well structured in supporting how the theory and knowledge behind the care plan approach and how to implement the care plan in practice ... Marjorie Lloyd has done a wonderful job in providing the theory and practical knowledge alongside excellent examples of this often confusing process."
Sandra Costall, Student Nurse, University of Chester, UK
This accessible guide takes the mystery and fear out of care planning and will help you to develop a person centred approach to delivering good quality nursing care in all clinical settings. The book explores each part of the care planning process in detail and provides opportunities for you to reflect upon practice and to develop effective skills through:
- Interprofessional working
- Risk management
- Communication and listening skills
- Reflection
- Supervision
This publication successfully guides the reader through the stages of care planning using a simple yet systematic approach. Its strength lies in the carefully designed format which gives consideration to the evidence base as well as providing guidance for the practical application of care plans.

Customer Reviews
Each chapter is introduced with a section on what we can expect from it, and finishes with a summary of what we should have learned. We are then presented with a set of self-assessment questions to test our own understanding of the chapter. Throughout each chapter there are a number of activities to enhance our learning, and also a number of `practice points' to test how we would implement what we learn in our own practice. There are also a number or very relevant `hot topics' which make us think about the role of health and care planning in society and its broader implications.
The book is finished with a very useful glossary of terms that are used throughout, a list of recommended reading, websites for further information, and an appendix containing practice sheets and audit checklists.
This book is very easy to read, very thorough and very well layed out. The number of visual aids is very much in proportion to the text, and enhances the learning process. I would recommend it to class mates and colleagues.
Please add your feedback here so that other people can see what you think of it and - happy care planning!
