520 _a"Nurses advocate for health promotion, educate patients and the public on prevention of illness and injury, provide care and assist in cure, participate in rehabilitation, and provide support. No other health care professional has such a broad and far-reaching role. Nurses help families learn to become healthy by helping them understand the range of emotional, physical, mental and cultural experiences they encounter during health and illness. Nurses help people and their families cope with illness, deal with it, and if necessary live with it, so that other parts of their lives can continue. Nurses provide ongoing assessment of people's health. Their round-the-clock presence, observation skills, and vigilance allow doctors to make better diagnoses and propose better treatments. Many lives have been saved because an attentive nurse picked upon early warning signs of an upcoming crisis like cardiac arrest or respiratory failure. Nursing is an important field in healthcare as it is the process for caring for, or nurturing an individual known as the "patient". It also refers to the functions and duties carried out by persons who have had formal education and training in the art and science of nursing. Being crucial in the healthcare field, certain functions and practices are being observed by nurses in order to more effectively and more efficiently provide services to their patients. To further provide adequate service to their patients, nurses also have to observe moral and ethical principles and practices, as ethics and morals may serve to provide dilemmas and conflicts in rendering sufficient service to patients. In addition, ethical principles and morals must be given importance and significance in the nursing practice to ensure that the well-being and health of the patients would be given priority, thus, upholding and promoting the moral aspects of the practice. This book prepares students for the realities of practice. Reimaged to appeal to this generation of nursing students, this engaging edition contains features that break up the text and help students pragmatically, acquire, retain, recall, and apply knowledge to real-life scenarios."
