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 Health Care in Mexico Fifth edition will continue to focus more on DNP authors and assess each chapter for relevance to DNP-prepared nurses Features an included test bank, practice activities, PPTs, IM, and a sample syllabus

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Mary de Chesnay, PhD, RN, PMH-BC, FAAN is a nurse-anthropologist who retired from an academic career and moved to sunny Arizona in the hopes of never again having to drive in snow. Now she makes jewelry for animal rescues and other organizations to sell for their fund-raising under the watchful supervision of Travis, the Airedale, and Tina Turner, the Shih Tzu. Having published several books on vulnerable populations, sex trafficking, research methods, and global health policy, she successfully procrastinated writing during retirement until the pandemic when she reviewed the story of Balto and Togo, the dogs who were heroes of the Great Serum Run to Nome, Alaska during the 1925 diphtheria epidemic. Inspired by the heroic Covid-19 nurses and doctors of the present day, she wrote the story of Emily Morgan, the nurse who actually administered the serum to the villages surrounding Nome. Without enough material for a scholarly book, she wrote Emily's story for children. She is now working on a series of stories about Angel Dogs- sent to earth to help people-again written for children.

Doesn't feel like a college text book. Fast, easy read, short chapters. I like it as a beginners intro to vulnerable populations. However, this was a required text for a grad course.
