Review by Library Journal Review

Revised to incorporate new issues and protocols, this substantial volume represents one of the most comprehensive and functional subject guides currently available. Capezuti (Evidence-Based Geriatric Nursing Protocols), Eugenia Siegler (Nurse-Physician Collaboration), and Mathy Mezey (Ethical Patient Care) have collected essays from 329 U.S. researchers and clinicians. Ranging between two and four pages in length, the entries are organized alphabetically by concept name and are followed by a list of web resources and bibliographic references. Topics range from organizational profiles and procedural issues to explanations of illness and prevention strategies. For hospital and medical policy collections. (c) Copyright 2010.
