A comprehensive and contemporary guide to chronic illness and disability care in Australia and New Zealand
Equip tomorrow’s nurses and health professionals with the knowledge, confidence and person-centred principles required to support people living with chronic illness and disability.
Now in its fifth edition, Living with Chronic Illness and Disability: Principles for Nursing Practice continues to set the benchmark for holistic, evidence-based care. Edited by Esther Chang and Deborah Hatcher and written by a multidisciplinary team of expert clinicians and academics, this trusted text prepares students and clinicians to work in genuine partnership with individuals, families and carers across the continuum of care.
Grounded in best practice and informed by current Australian, New Zealand and international evidence, the text explores the realities of living with chronic conditions and disability. It champions self-management, empowerment and interdisciplinary collaboration, and addresses major conditions including heart disease, stroke, cancer, asthma, diabetes, dementia, mental illness and palliative care, alongside essential dimensions of care such as spirituality, sexuality and sexual health, chronic pain, stigma and preferred place of care.
Designed for nursing and allied health students, newly registered nurses and clinicians across Australia and New Zealand, this text supports the development of clinical reasoning, reflective practice and the delivery of safe, competent and responsive care throughout every stage of a professional career.
