Code of Ethics for Nurses with Interpretive Statements

This essential nursing reference provides clear, practical interpretations of the profession's ethical standards. The updated guidelines effectively address modern healthcare challenges like social media use, cultural competency, and evolving technology in patient care. The interpretive statements are particularly valuable, offering concrete examples that help translate abstract ethical principles into daily practice. Each provision is thoroughly explained with relevant scenarios that nurses commonly encounter, making it easier to apply these principles in real-world situations. The format breaks down complex ethical concepts into digestible sections, though some interpretations could benefit from more specific examples. The cross-referencing between provisions helps demonstrate how different ethical principles intersect in practice. The documentation requirements and professional boundary guidelines are especially well-detailed. While comprehensive, the language sometimes leans toward the academic, which might make quick reference during busy shifts challenging. A quick-reference summary section would make this more practical for daily use. Still, it's an indispensable resource for understanding professional obligations and making ethical decisions in nursing practice. Worth keeping nearby for reference, particularly when dealing with challenging patient situations or navigating conflicts between personal and professional values.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

The book is overpriced in what one gets.but the description is accurate. Its a slim book. Nice paper cover and easy to read font. Preety much all I can say about it.

I received a book with a damaged cover that had been described as "New"...and when I pointed this out, the store refunded half of the purchase price. That was fair. I purchased it for my wife and she needed it for class. She will certainly not get full value when she resells or gives the book to a classmate, so the store did a fair thing by refunding half of the cost. Thank you. I will order again from this store.
