The book fills a much-needed gap in the literature around health promotion and what skills and knowledge the nursing student requires, to support studies into becoming a qualified nurse.
I would recommend this book to any students who want to understand health promotion, as this has helped me to understand basic principles and use activities to practice the newly learned skills.
Health Promotion for Nursing Students is the perfect book for student nurses who wish to extend their knowledge in this topic areas. It highlights on why health promotion is so important and how it can benefit all client groups within different settings. This book is ideal for any student completing any assignment in this area as it not only increases the readers knowledge but also helps the reader to be critical and teaches the reader to evaluate.
This book is set out so that no matter what year of study you are in, you can gain knowledge on health promotion without being complexed by jargon or lengthy paragraphs. It use of case studies and reflective pieces for the reader to attempt, helps nursing students relate this into practice and become more reflective professionals.
I like this book because it is specifically for nursing students, so it is focussed and is a great addition to any course for nurses. Many health promotion textbooks are generic and can only be used in conjunction with others to get a full picture of health promotion for nursing staff. This book is definitely on my essential reading list.
this is an excellent book, the layout is perfect, the link to the NMC Standards and aims are clear, it is written in such a way that it is easy to read and easy to understand. you can pick up the book and read any section that you are interested in, rather than feel like you have to read it from front to back in one go. Definitely recommend this book
Very useful, easy to read. Very relevant to my teaching.
Absolutely fantastic text which is easy to read for students and staff. This text has been used as an essential read within the SCPHN course.
