This book is very useful for mental health undergraduate nursing students. I will recommend it to the students from the MH specialty who undertake my module. A strength, I think, are the case studies. A weakness, for me, is the focus on NMC Standards.

A useful resource, but one of a choice of books that the students have at present. I do mention this to students though as a prompt.

Easy to read and offers a basic overview of concepts surrounding Assessment & decision making. I would recommend this to students as a good starting point on the topic.

I found that this text book combined all the elements I needed for my students. The layout of the book was excellent

A very good, concise book with essential information on assessment. I will be recommending it to my undergraduate students

I have passed this book to several Mental Health Lecturer colleagues as some of the scenarios provide a great forum for discussion. The chapter on challenges to assessment got the students engaged in great debate where they shared some very interesting practice examples in order to relate theory to practice.
