Series: Oxford Handbooks in Nursing

Focused on the practical issues of nursing care and nursing procedures, the Oxford Handbook of Critical Care Nursing has been written by nurses, for nurses.

Reflecting current best practice, this handbook is an easily accessible and evidence-based guide for all levels of nursing staff working in critical care environments. It provides the nurse at the bedside with the answers to day-to-day problems experienced when caring for critically ill patients, and is also a guide to some of the less commonly encountered issues. Now including more detail on the psychological issues facing critically ill patients and further information on the intricacies of receiving and transferring critically ill patients to and from critical care environments, this handbook is a concise, practical, evidence-based guide for nursing professionals caring for critically ill patients.

Reviews for Oxford Handbook of Critical Care Nursing

Really clear, concise- able to quickly flick through and access the information required...Additional strengths is having all the relevant information from a multitude of clinical presentations in one place. Particularly valuable to have the list of abbreviations- the book certainly delivers what it is intended for. * Gemma Wilson, Berkshire Healthcare Foundation Trust - Nursing Times *
