Patient Safety and Managing Risk in Nursing

The book acknowledges it is an introduction to the subject which it is. It is sadly already out of date with the current NHS structures, and organisational changes. I would suggest the current edition of the book (with updating of NHS organisational changes) is highly suitable and could be beneficially marketed for the non registration/graduate health and social care workers ie. HCSW′s etc. Enhancing the depth of critical thinking in the activities within future editions would assist graduates and post registration students. -- Dr Julie Cullen * drupal *

This is a very useful text from both and accademic and clinical practice viewpoint, as with all the transforming series it is well presented and easy to read and well planned at all stages. It covers every area of care and guidesthe reader through the priorities in each area. I feel that the linking of the NMC standards with each chapter reinforcs the importance of the subject for all the readers. -- Ms Joanne O'Donnell * drupal *
