Professional Nursing Concepts: Competencies for Quality Leadership, Sixth Edition takes a patient-centered, traditional approach to the topic of nursing education. An ideal text for teaching students how to transition from the classroom to practice, it focuses on the core competencies for health professionals as determined by the Institute of Medicine (IOM). Students stay engaged with Stop and Consider statements that examine key topics from a personal and a clinical point-of-view, and with End-of-Chapter Special Teaching Learning Features that encourage students to interact with the content in dynamic ways, from group discussions to reflection journals to designing their own clinical case scenarios.
