Nursing and Collaborative Practice
A guide to interprofessional learning and working

Second Edition


June 2010 | 208 pages | Learning Matters
As modern healthcare evolves, it is essential for nurses to understand and work with a diverse range of people to provide quality care. But it is often difficult to grasp the many roles of those in healthcare services. This book provides a clear, practical and up-to-date guide to the various people that nurses work with, including the essential role of service users themselves, and how to work with them to improve care.

This new edition includes increased coverage of teamwork and improving mental health. It is updated throughout including discussion of LiNKS, the Care Quality Commission and Every Child Matters.

I have found this excellent book a useful resource for nursing students throughout the curriculum; from introducing the concept of multiagency working in the first year to teaching about the challenges of providing collaborative care.

I like the title, the link to NMC standards and chapter 6. The thing I slightly dislike is the cover - they are all so similar - I appreciate that they are cooperate but I forget which ones I have picked up.

Students at the end of their course have to submit a number of pieces of work based on collaborative practice. This book is useful in giving them a starting point on the subject and provides useful information relevant to their course.
