Caring for the Vulnerable: Perspectives in Nursing Theory, Practice, and Research focuses on vulnerable populations and how nurses can care for them, develop programs for them, conduct research, and influence health policy. Units I and II focus on concepts and theories; Unit III on research; Units IV, V, and VI on practice-oriented measures, including teaching nursing students to work with vulnerable patients and clients; and Unit VII on policy. The text provides a broad overview of material critical to working with these populations, comprehensive treatment of issues related to vulnerable populations, outstanding contributors who are experts in what they write, and a global focus.
The Fifth Edition will be a major overhaul, as each new edition of this text has been. There will be a total of 31 new chapters focusing on new and emerging research on vulnerable populations. This text is generally used as a supplement in a wide variety of courses - from health promotion to population health, to global health.
New to the Fifth Edition:
Thirty-one new chapters focusing on new and emerging research on vulnerable populations, exploring topics such as:
Intersection of Racial Disparities and Privilege in Women’s Health
HIV Prevention Education
Caring for the Transgender Community
Caring for Vulnerable Populations: Outcomes with the DNP-Prepared Nurse
With some chapters delving into key clinical topics in identified regions, such as:
Opioid Abuse and Diversion Prevention in Rural Eastern Kentucky
The Effects of Gun Trauma on Rural Montana Healthcare Providers
