The book was created based on the requirements of 14 ADLs covering the following aspects; Fundamental of Nursing, Vital Signs, Personal Hygiene, Bed Making, Moving and Positioning, Maintaining Airway and Oxygenation, Oral and Enthral Nutrition, Specimen collection, Bowel and Elimination, Comfort Measures, Medication, Intravenous, Wound Care, Bandages, Intraoperative Procedures, Special Procedures and Care After Death. The skills and procedures were selected and consulted with experienced clinicians, nursing lecturers, nurse instructors and significant others whom we had wisely sought to ensure the book quality is sure-fire.
The range, duration, and intensity of informal caregiving across different illnesses and disabilities have increased in the 21st century due to an increase in longevity and de-institutionalization in most countries. Caregiving is demanding and hence can be stressful in terms of time, effort, and financial requirements, depending on the nature of the illness or disability, the relationships between the person in need of support and the caregiver, and the role played by available health and social care services. However, research evidence has demonstrated that it can be also rewarding, and enables a different type of bonding than was the case before caregiving became a necessity.
At present, according to UNESCO, less than 30% of researchers worldwide are women. Long-standing biases and gender stereotypes are discouraging girls and women away from science-related fields, and STEM research in particular. Science and gender equality are, however, essential to ensure sustainable development as highlighted by UNESCO. In order to change traditional mindsets, gender equality must be promoted, stereotypes defeated, and girls and women should be encouraged to pursue STEM careers.
