It is must for every student nurse out there, a book dedicated to the nursing professions most important aspect; understanding our patients needs."
S. A. Hough, First Year Nursing Student

Psychology for Nurses and the Caring Professions is essential reading for students undertaking pre- and post-qualifying diploma or degree level courses in nursing and health care, including nurses, midwives, occupational therapists, physiotherapists and radiographers. It is also a useful introduction to the application of psychology for professionals working in social care.
