Author Description

"As modern healthcare rapidly changes, it is essential for nurses to work with a wide range of people to provide quality, holistic care to their patients. However, it is often difficult to grasp the many differing roles involved in healthcare services, and to understand how to work with them to improve care. This book provides a clear, practical and up-to-date guide to the various individuals, professionals and groups working with nurses and considers why collaborative working is so important. It goes beyond interprofessional working to explore the essential role of service users themselves in any effective collaborative practice" -- Back cover.
