Holistic Assertiveness Skills for Nurses

This guide to assertiveness skills for nurses is designed to meet the needs of individual nurses, and for classroom and workshop use. Nurses can also use the many exercises in the book with their patients to help them find more assertive and empowered ways to react and be proactive. The author's premise is that assertiveness is a skill, like giving an injection or taking a nursing history, which requires adequate and systematic practice. It also should be viewed within the context of one's own health and well-being. The workshop format encourages readers to assess and build their skills through self-study and role playing.

Spirituality in Nursing: from Traditional to New Age

Thoroughly updated, this award-winning book looks at spirituality and nursing from many perspectives: theoretical, historical, religious, psychological, physiological. In her thoughtful exploration of the reemergence of spirituality as an important factor in nursing practice, Barnum traces nursing's involvement with spirituality from its historical ties with religion to the current interest in New Age and alternative health methods. Nursing theories involving spirituality, such as those presented by Dossey, Newman, and Watson are examined and nursing trends are placed in the larger context of trends in society and other disciplines, including psychology, physics, and philosophy. Information on techniques and therapies for incorporating spirituality into patient care is included in this edition.
