Transforming Care: A Christian Vision Of Nursing Practice

What's distinctive about the Christian nurse? Suggesting that Christian faith entails something more essential than evangelism or a certain position on moral dilemmas, the authors of "Transforming Care" deal with the ordinary, everyday nature of nursing practice.

The first part of the book articulates the relationship between Christian faith and nursing practice, while analyzing concepts common to nursing literature. The second part describes and evaluates nursing practice in three different health care contexts: acute care settings, mental health facilities, and community care contexts. Sidebars throughout the book offer thought-provoking quotations from well-known authors and nursing experts.
