Nursing Ethics and Professional Responsibility in Advanced Practice
Author/s: Pamela J. Grace, Melissa K. UvegesOVERVIEW
Nursing Ethics and Professional Responsibility in Advanced Practice, Fourth Edition, remains the only comprehensive textbook available on the ethical issues faced by APRNs providing front-line care. It introduces the foundations of professional responsibility and makes difficult philosophical and ethical concepts accessible to students so they can facilitate their own ethical decision-making. The authors, both APRNs and ethicists, demystify the principles and language of healthcare ethics.
Beginning from a foundation of nursing practice, this unique resource guides students in developing ethical decision-making skills they can apply to a range of circumstances, from everyday issues to complex dilemmas. The updated Fourth Edition features expanded information on social justice, including advocacy for vulnerable populations and global issues, as well as new discussions on managing social media, electronic health records, and ethical issues specific to CRNAs and CNSs in the perioperative setting.
