| Summary |
In this new text-reference, Dr. Carl O. Helvie explores the realm of community health care for advanced practice nurses currently working in community care or requiring an awareness and understanding of its salient issues. Simple in its presentation but rigorous in its coverage of related theories and concepts, Advanced Practice Nursing in the Community reviews community health nursing and advanced practice and then presents the Helvie Energy Theory as a guiding framework for the remainder of the volume. In addition to numerous assessment instruments and other tools found throughout the book, case studies follow nearly every chapter to illuminate the content. Clinicians early in their community advanced practice will find the extensive assessment example of an actual community in the Rudyville Community Analysis especially interesting |
