Psychosocial nursing care : a guide to nursing the whole person / Dave Roberts. - 184 pages ; 24 cm

Includes bibliographical references and index.

Nurses care for the whole person but often lack guidance on how best to take care of a person's psychological needs when in a healthcare setting. This work explores simply and practically the importance of giving good psychosocial nursing care, and helps readers develop the right skills to do this well. Each chapter includes examples based on real life situations, and extracts of fictional dialogue are used to show how nurses can communicate with patients in a therapeutic way - even during day-to-day care.
