A Handbook for Student Nurses is widely recommended in institutions across the UK and is essential reading for new students.

The book provides an introduction to the essential background knowledge that pre-registration nursing students need as a foundation for their training. This third edition has been thoroughly revised to reflect the new NMC standards of proficiency for registered nurses and the most recent update of the NMC Code. It also features a completely new chapter on health promotion, and incorporates the very latest developments in nurse education and in the health service.

A Handbook for Student Nurses covers the core of first-year nursing studies:

  • Practice supervision and assessment
  • Communication
  • Legal and professional issues
  • Values, ethics and cultural awareness
  • Reflection and personal development
  • Quality care and evidence-based practice
  • Study skills
  • Public health and promoting health and wellbeing
  • "An excellent introductory text for student nurses, written in a clear and illuminative style." Lecturer, Adult Nursing
