Critical thinking in nursing: a practical approach.
Rosalinda Alfaro-LeFevre
Document Type
Description.
Updated and revised, the second edition of this unique and popular text promotes the critical thinking and professional skills needed to face the challenges of today's rapidly changing health care system. Readers learn both skills and theory in a manner that is practical and easy to read. A completely new chapter provides clinical guidelines for mastering the workplace skills suggested by National Educational Goals 2000. And, a wealth of examples, analogies, case studies, and practice sessions provide readers with a truly interactive experience. These practice scenarios illustrate "real-world" challenges such as communicating bad news, working in teams, managing conflict, and satisfying customers.

Key Features
New features.
Very good book, engaging, good use of figures and diagrams. Good application to practice - I will also be adding this to an International Health Assessment reading list.
This is a fantastic update from previous versions giving good scenarios for the students to work through. It includes all the relevant theories of clinical decision making and relates this to up to date practice.
Personally I love the practical approach and as such, it should be of use to my students. It couldn't be a core text though as the module is speciality specific, but I expect students to develop critical thinking and clinical reasoning within the module and they need ideas of ways to do this. Thank you for writing this text.
An excellent book used by other staff members and students. Very helpful when teaching communication and interpersonal skills
An exceptionally well written book, that related to all Healthcare professionals not just Nursing Students - the aspects on critical thinking has been central to the course
This year I was able to use a few chapters of the book to develop the basics of nursing course for English students.
