An up-to-date, serious, and effective overview and study March 5, 2004
Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA)
9 out of 9 found this review helpful
Now in a thoroughly updated and expanded fifth edition, Chronic Illness: Impact And Interventions is a study text especially intended for upper level undergraduate and graduate students in nursing, social work, and rehabilitation, but the information it offers is useful to all family members and survivors dealing with the psychological, ethical, organizational, and financial difficulties of ongoing illness. The collaborative effort of Ilene Morof Lubkin (Professor Emeritus, California State University - Hayward) and Pamala D. Larsen (Interim Director, School of Nursing College of Health and Human Services, University of North Carolina at Charlotte), Chronic Illness offers students new chapters on home care, long term care, and the role of the advanced practice nurse. An up-to-date, serious, and effective overview and study of this significant health issue, Chronic Illness is strongly recommended addition to Medical School library reference collections and Nursing Studies supplemental reading lists.
