It has been specifically developed for Australian nursing students and community nurses practising within the Australian community health care context because community nursing practice requires unique ways of knowing, understanding and practicing. Focussing on the common elements of community nursing practice and framed by primary health care principles, best practice is promoted through the inclusion of guidelines to assist decision making and the detailed descriptions of procedures commonly performed in community health care delivery. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe editors and contributors highlight key challenges in Australian community nursing practice, including the reality of the community care environment and the potential boundaries. Insight is provided into practice issues including informed consent, clinical governance, risk and incident management, infection control, disaster response; assessment and documentation practices, manual handling, clinical competency and client education. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEditors:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eDebbie Kralik\u003c\/em\u003e is Director of Research, Royal District Nursing Service, South Australia.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eKatherine Trowbridge\u003c\/em\u003e is Research Associate, Royal District Nursing Service, South Australia. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eJudy Smith\u003c\/em\u003e is Executive Director of Nursing and Client Services, Royal District Nursing Service, South Australia.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eList of contributors vii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePreface xi\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAcknowledgements xiv\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1 Approaches to community nursing care 1\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eAntonia van Loon\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2 Clinical governance 20\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eAnne Maddock\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3 Informed consent 33\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eElizabeth Crock\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4 Assessment 52\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLisa Turner, Julianne Siggins and Stephen Harding\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5 Incident management and mandatory reporting 76\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eAnne Maddock and Katherine Trowbridge\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6 Community infection control and prevention practice 94\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eRamon Shaban and Belinda Henderson\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7 Disaster planning and management 109\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePaul Arbon\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e8 Care of people with chronic conditions 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eDebbie Kralik\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e9 Mental health 149\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eJanette Curtis, Yvonne White and Jennifer Harland\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e10 Addiction and homelessness 166\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eJanette Curtis, Jennifer Harland and Yvonne White\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e11 Continence 184\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eNorah Bostock and Carolyn Roe\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e12 Diabetes care 215\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eJane Giles, Kate Visentin and Pauline Hill\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e13 Vascular access device management in the community 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLisa Turner\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e14 Child and maternal health 260\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eGay Edgecombe, Creina Mitchell and Irene Ellis\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e15 Medication support 291\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKatherine Trowbridge\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e16 Nutritional support 312\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eElaine Tooke and Scott King\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e17 Caring for older people 337\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eMegan O’Donnell, Rhonda Nay and Margaret Winbolt\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e18 Palliative care 362\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eCathy Bennett and Dianne Roughton\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e19 Personal care 396\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eScott King and Elaine Tooke\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e20 Stoma care 416\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eCarmen George\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e21 Wound management 436\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSue Templeton\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e22 Systemic reactions and anaphylaxis 461\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eDeryn Thompson, Kate Visentin and Colleen Smith\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e23 New and emerging technologies 479\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eMoya Conrick\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex 497\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Nursing \u0026amp; ancillary services [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Nursing \u0026amp; ancillary services\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Nursing%20\u0026amp;%20ancillary%20services%20%5BMQ%5D%22\"\u003eMQ\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Wiley-Blackwell","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52437780136216,"sku":"9781405159647","price":48.79,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9781405159647.jpg?v=1784939756","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/a-practice-manual-for-community-nursing-in-australia-paperback-softback-9781405159647","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
