Product Description

Palliative and End-of-Life Care, 2nd Edition provides clinicians with the guidelines and tools necessary to provide quality, evidenced-based care to patients with life-limiting illness. This text describes the care and management of patients with advanced disease throughout the disease trajectory, extending from diagnosis of advanced disease until death. Four units provide the general principles of palliative and end-of-life care, important concepts, advanced disease management, and clinical practice guidelines. Clinical practice guidelines offer in-depth discussions of the pathophysiology of 19 different symptoms, interventions for specific symptom management (including in-depth rationales), and suggestions for patient and family teaching.

5.0 out of 5 stars practical guild, Aug 8 2008

By Lois I. Croly - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Palliative and End-of-Life Care: Clinical Practice Guidelines, 2e (Paperback)

This is well organized, practical book. I am using it to help train new hospice nurses in Mazatlan, Mexico. The case studies illustrate practical ways for meaningful discussions on symptom management. Great book!
