Legal minimum for nurses

A completely new, modern and comprehensive handbook, based on the new legislation, replaces previous, similarly focused publications. It is intended for nurses, students and teachers who come into contact with patients and their families. Legal issues in healthcare and in the treatment of patients are very complex. It is therefore essential that the nurse and other members of the nursing team are well versed in the law and know not only their responsibilities but also their rights. The nurse is responsible for several things at the same time and very often is also attributed responsibility in situations where, even with the best will, it is not possible to keep an eye on the patient - e.g. in case of a pass. This publication will provide readers with an explanation of the legal responsibilities of nurses in the exercise of their profession. The chapter on the issues of media contact, nurse response and public speaking is covered in more detail in this publication, as it may be the current solution to legal offences
complicated in this area. New is the chapter on the protection of the nurse's personality, which deals with the nurse's rights and protection in the event of unlawful acts by the patient or family or co-workers. Readers will get answers to these and other topical questions after reading the Legal Minimum for Nurses.
