Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

MoreLong description:
The Oxford Handbook of Adult Nursing 3rd edition reflects the ever-changing role of nurses and nursing in the post-pandemic world. Health services and the nursing profession are under profound strain, with daily reminders of the centrality of nursing in maintaining the population's health, safety, and well-being. This invaluable resource continues to address the philosophy, principles, and practice of general adult nursing, in an accessible and convenient format.
The central focus of the handbook is everyday clinical nursing practice and decision-making, recognising the wider context of external factors which impact on nurses and nursing. Chapters cover professional nursing values and standards, language, communication, skills for dealing with diverse clinical populations, leadership, teamwork, professional development, research, outlines of different body systems, clinical conditions, investigations, treatments, and frequently prescribed medicines. All chapters highlight relevant nursing practice considerations and useful sources of further information. Two exciting new chapters, Clinical assessment and Essential clinical skills have been added; these describe key nursing skills relevant to most health conditions, and guide nurses in the practical aspects of organising and delivering care. The content has been fully updated by a team of specialist nurses, in line with NMC regulations, NICE guidelines, and everyday practice and treatment innovations.
This indispensable companion provides nursing students, international, and general adult nurses with a robust framework for thinking about and delivering, safe, compassionate, values-based nursing.
