Textbook of Psychiatric Nursing (Softcover)
The successful textbook by the German-Swiss editorial team presents the fundamentals, framework conditions, tools, skills, nursing concepts, and specific settings of psychiatric nursing, all client and nursing-oriented. The fourth edition has been extensively updated and expanded. It clearly explains phenomena and life challenges that nurses encounter in psychiatric fields of action and describes them in a nursing process-oriented manner. The experienced team of over 70 authors describes in the basic section: the concept of nursing, nursing-theoretical foundations, characteristics of health, illness and recovery, elements of social inclusion, as well as basic knowledge of nursing ethics and history. It summarizes the framework conditions of psychiatric nursing regarding research, profession, law, care, quality management and teamwork. It explains in detail the two tools of psychiatric nursing: the nursing relationship and interaction, as well as the nursing process. It names central skills of psychiatric nursing, from working with relatives and mindfulness to counseling, group work and conversation, to home visits, crisis intervention, milieu design, person and resource orientation, symptom management, and coercive measures. It describes from A-Z over 40 essential concepts of psychiatric nursing, such as aggression, anxiety, autonomy, coping, loneliness, emotion regulation, eating disorders, hope, humor, communication, boredom, powerlessness, manipulation, and migration experience. It illustrates the building blocks and nursing process elements of the concepts of shame, sleep, pain, self-harm and neglect, as well as sexuality, spirituality, stigmatization, hearing voices, and addiction, suicidality, grief, and trauma, up to restlessness, trust, confusion, and time perception. It explains the specifics of settings in outpatient and inpatient, acute and long-term care, child and adolescent psychiatry, addiction help, inpatient psychotherapy, and forensic psychiatry. "The editors of this textbook... have created a truly phenomenal work. It is obvious that experts were at work here. ... I only have one problem with the book: it's hard to put down."
