Clinical Judgement and Decision-Making in Nursing and Inter-Professional Healthcare PDF
by Mooi Standing
Description
"Mooi Standing's book provides an excellent application of the principal concepts of Cognitive Continuum Theory; her presentation is clear, accurate and her inferences show that she has a first rate grasp of the implications of the theory, and what it means for the care of patients. Her work should stand as a monument to the application of psychological theory to nursing care."
Professor Emeritus Kenneth R. Hammond, University of Colorado, USA
Sound clinical judgement and decision-making is vital to delivery of high quality, patient-centred, nursing and interprofessional healthcare. This book integrates the theory and practice of decision-making to guide and enhance practitioners' understanding and clinical expertise.
Mooi Standing presents relevant, contemporary theory and research that relates decision-making to:
- Professional identity
- Organization of healthcare
- Developing knowledge and skills
- Selecting and applying the most appropriate intervention in clinical practice
The author's new 'reflexive-pragmatism' model summarizes the key knowledge, skills, values and processes of clinical judgement and decision-making, for readers to apply in reviewing and enhancing their own clinical practice. Extensive reflective activities and self assessment tools are included throughout the book.
Clinical Judgement and Decision-Making is essential reading for qualified nurses, midwives and allied health professionals undertaking CPD modules in judgement and decision-making, evidence-based practice and reflective practice or studying to be advanced practitioners.
