| Summary |
"This book represents an attempt to put into writing twenty-two years of effort directed towards giving undergraduate nurses some idea of the need for understanding human behavior in its relationship to the practice of their profession. During this period the behavioristic sciences of psychiatry, psychology, sociology have developed by leaps and bounds. In like manner the requirements for admission to training schools and the standards of training school curricula have changed with equal rapidity. The task confronting any instructor of undergraduate nurses is that of culling and organizing essentials in the topical field under discussion and presenting them in a concrete and practical manner. The student nurse cannot be expected to cover the wealth of material available in any branch of departmental knowledge to which she is exposed in her course of training. Her contribution to the art of healing is that of intelligent nursing skill in the acquirement of which she must of necessity spend two-thirds of her training school time. Learning and the development of special fields of interest are ready and waiting for her in the postgraduate period. No attempt is made in this book to enter the province of psychiatric nursing"--Preface. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2014 APA, all rights reserved). |
