Based on the 5th edition of the market-leading Community and Public Health Nursing , our new text - Foundations of Community and Public Health Nursing: Community Oriented Practice - offers the same community-oriented focus but covers only the essential content that ADN and BSN students need. Marcia Stanhope and Jeanette Lancaster have retained the best of the 5th edition of the larger text, but presented it in a streamlined and concise format. As health care services have moved into community settings, nursing education at all levels is putting more emphasis on community nursing care. The community-oriented focus of this new text emphasizes health promotion and disease prevention. The goal of community-oriented community health nursing is to preserve, protect, promote, or maintain health through the care provided to individuals, families, and groups in the community. The various roles a community health nurse might undertake are discussed in a separate unit. Another unit discusses the care of vulnerable populations in the community. Family and individual care is also the focus of a separate unit. Practical application of concepts is highlighted throughout the text through the How To, Evidence Based Practice, and Clinical Application features. An attractive two color design with many features similar to those in the 5th edition of the larger text presents the content in an accessible and engaging format. - Discusses the various roles of and multiple settings for community health nursing in a separate unit - Addresses the different types of clients that a community health nurse may encounter in a separate unit on vulnerable populations - Provides a Chapter Outline, Learning Objectives, and Key Terms with definitions at the beginning of each chapter to highlight important concepts, terminology, and serve as an overview of chapter content - Incorporates Clinical Applications that present real-life community client situations with questions and answers - Provides How To boxes that offer specific, application-oriented information - Presents Evidence-Based Practice briefs that focus on recent research findings and their application to community nursing practice - Presents topics for discussion, special clinical considerations, and facts of interest in Briefly Noted boxes - Provides numerous appendixes with additional resources and key information - Employs an attractive two-color design that enhances the presentation of material and increases the accessibility of features and content
