The Nursing Assistant fulfills the need for a brief, practical, and affordable guide to nursing assistance in today’s competitive healthcare environment. This text is the foundation for any nursing assistant training program and applies equally to acute, subacute, or long-term care settings. Following the models of the nursing process, state curricula, and OBRA mandates, The Nursing Assistant provides 73 step-by-step procedures reflecting the tasks most commonly performed by nursing assistants. Reflecting the latest CDC, OSHA, and HIPAA guidelines, the sixth edition expands the discussion of patient-care goals and cultural awareness and adds new person-centered case studies throughout. A companion website with self-study materials is available.
