Beskrivelse
Here’s the must-know information LPN/LVN students need to care for patients with mental health disorders where they’ll encounter them in general patient care settings.
An easy-to-read, conversational writing style shows you how to recognize and respond to the most important mental health issues. You’ll also explore important communication techniques, ethical and legal issues, and alternative and complementary treatments. Coverage of nursing interventions, basic psychiatric nursing skills, and psychopharmacology prepares you for the NCLEX-PN® exam and clinical practice.
