Education for Health and Care

More about the book

This book is written for nursing students in their first years of training. After an overview of the Italian health care system and an analysis of the challenges it faces in an aging society and in a global world, the text presents theoretical reflections on the role of education in the health care professions, which demand continuous attention not only to their technical and scientific aspects, but also to the quality of interpersonal communication and to the creation of effective helping relationships.
