Notes on ... Caring


Book Description

"The landscape of healthcare provision across the world has changed in the past few years. An increased dependence on technology, growing financial pressure on the world's health services, the potential impact of AI, an ongoing shortage of qualified nursing and other health professional staff, the global pandemic, and a host of other regional and local pressures has meant the act of providing care in the health care domain or health service has come under growing pressure. As well, the path towards becoming a nurse or health professional has changed, with unprecedented clinical challenges and changes in the way students learn as greater content is moved to online learning platforms and clinical exposure is diminished. The global pandemic has exposed weaknesses in health services around the world, but it has also emphasised the commitment, care and courage health professionals have been able to bring to their roles each day and in a multitude of clinical environments. Today's nursing and health professional students are tomorrow's clinical leaders, and now is an excellent opportunity to explore what 'care' means for health professionals facing sustained and ongoing clinical challenges. Nurses and other health professionals are expected to employ a solid knowledge base, sound clinical skills, and think critically and to do so with a firm grasp of what it means to 'care' and how caring is practiced... however this too is coming under pressure from the same forces mentioned above. With the additional challenges of burn out, compassion fatigue, bullying and a seeming host of more hostile clinical environments. This text: Notes On... Caring is written to provide an outline of what it means to 'care' from a health professional perspective. Its goal is to help nurses and health professionals understand the concepts and context of care and how effective care provision can or might be used to enhance their practice - to excel as a nurse or health professional and to offer genuinely transformational care"--
