Policy & Politics in Nursing and Healthcare, Feb 8 2010

This review is from: Policy and Politics in Nursing and Health Care (Paperback)
This was a required text book for my graduate school nursing class on current issues in nursing. I found this book to be very readable and full of pertinent information. The only potential downside is the fact that this book can easily become outdated due to changes in legislation. Policy and politics are an everchanging front. I highly reccomend this book. It helps the reader understand how we came to this point in healthcare and how we can be most effective in changing the legislative climate. This book was interesting, I found myself reading beyond the assignment.

Extreme amount of excellent information. Some of stories at the end of the chapters were a bit out of date but informative.
