Health promotion is an increasingly prominent aspect of the role of the nurse - whether in line with health policy or as nursing shifts from a disease model to a healthy one. This textbook explores how and why health promotion works in nursing, developing a new framework for understanding the role of the nurse and promoting evidence-based practice. Based on empirical research and discussion of current theories of health promotion and nursing, Stuart Piper identifies three main approaches: the nurse as a pathogen change agent as a strategic practitionerThe nurse as an empowerment officer describes the goals, processes, impact and outcomes of health Enhancing nursing interventions for each of these models and sets criteria for evaluating associated nursing interventions - Enable clinical judgments about effective practice. Evidence-based examples illustrate the relationship between health promotion theory and pragmatic applications of nursing all the time.
Each chapter includes an introduction, educational outcomes and exercises, making this book necessary for all nursing students studying health promotion.
