Physical Healthcare and Promotion in Mental Health Nursing

Good book, will be using it with pre registration mental health nursing students as it's easy to use and understand.

This is a really good pre reg book for mental health nursing around physical health. It covers all the key areas and its in a easy format for the students to understand the key concepts.

The book is written in accessible language and helpfully mapped against the NMC education standards. The book has a good range of learning activities to help the reader assimulate the learning in text.

Well put together text. Good rationales provided for why mental health nurses need to learn physical health skills.

I love the way these Transforming Nursing Practice books are set out. The Case Studies and Activities really help the reader to engage with the theory, while the further reading is concise and well selected. This will be a useful text in helping mental health students understand relevant and pertinent points regarding physical healthcare and promotion.

I have reccomended this book for mental health field student nurses who are undertaking a physical care skills module as an optional module at the end of their 3 year degree programme, they have found it very useful

Cracking book to supplement our skill days and skills.net resource.

It also supports our assessment in year two.

Easy to understand and relevant to practice.

Great easy to use text for all mental health nurses.
