Nursing in geriatrics

Cognition assessment tools, Interactions, self-care, nutrition, pains, self-sufficiency and the promotion of meaningfulness are the main themes of the publication, which focuses on geriatric care in terms of assessing the condition of geriatric patients and clients in hospitals and social care facilities (e.g. in retirement homes). An overview of individual assessment techniques in geriatrics has not yet been published in such a comprehensive way. It will be used not only by nursing students, but also by nurses and staff in social care settings to assess the condition of their clients. The book contains a wide list of assessment scales and tools.
