Abstract "The Sixth Edition of Mental Health Nursing is a psychiatric nursing text tailored specifically to the needs of the Licensed Practical Nurse/ Licensed Vocational Nurse (LPN/LVN) student. We understand that many students at this level of preparation do not have the opportunity for clinical experience in a psychiatric setting, but they will encounter patients with mental health issues in their rotations and throughout their careers. Students will encounter patients and their families with psychiatric diagnoses as well as a variety of psychosocial issues and behaviors that challenge them. This text provides the basic knowledge and skills to address many of these challenges, with an emphasis on communication"-- Provided by publisher.
