<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Inpatient Psychiatric Nursing: Clinical Strategies and Practical Interventions describes specific aspects of inpatient psychiatric nursing practice, with a focus on three types of inpatient treatment goals: keeping the patient safe, stabilizing symptoms, and promoting engagement in treatment. The book also discusses discharge planning. The book is organized into two parts: Part I is divided according to patient behaviors, while Part II focuses on interventions that nurses can employ to manage behaviors. Part I features a consistent chapter format so that specific content is easy to access, and each chapter includes a comprehensive table covering goals, areas of assessment, and interventions of the chapter's covered behavior. The symptomatic approach will provide a translational model to improve outcomes for psychiatric patients with medical symptoms and medical patients with psychiatric symptoms. This book is intended for any nurse working with patients having behavioral disturbances regardless of the cause"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong>First edition named a Doody's Core Title and winner of an AJN Book of the Year Award!</strong></p> <p>This is truly a contribution to the hands-on clinical literature....This book can serve as a resource for nurses working in inpatient psychiatry, nursing students, and nursing faculty who teach undergraduate psychiatric nursing.--<em>Choice: Current Reviews for Academic Libraries</em></p> <p>[A] great book for inpatient psychiatric nurses.--<em>Doody's Medical Reviews</em></p> <p>Psychiatric nursing practice has changed dramatically to accommodate increasing patient acuity and an evolving healthcare landscape.
