The Doctor of Nursing Practice Essentials 1st Edition PDF Free Download

Preface:

Health care is in a whirlwind of change, and advanced practice nurses are right in the center of that change. The societal forces driving the transformation of health care have been dissected, researched, and exhaustively discussed, debated, and documented. Now, with the development of the Doctor of Nursing Practice program of study and the American Association of Colleges of Nursing’s Essentials of Doctoral Education for Advanced Nursing Practice, we have the opportunity to place these ideas into action—to bring them into nursing practice in a way never before done. This book provides a roadmap for creating change in health care and the tools to make those changes. It is important to mention that this book was authored solely by nurses who practice at an advanced level and who have achieved the Doctor of Nursing Practice degree. Some fulfill traditional advanced practice roles, and some have expanded roles as administrators, educators, and entrepreneurs. Each of these nurses took hours out of his or her busy practice to author these materials. In that aspect, this book is unique. Additionally, this book is unique in that it lays out a step-by-step template or framework for the development of the scholarly project. Purpose of the Book This book is intended to serve as a core textbook for DNP students and faculty to use to achieve mastery of the American Association of Colleges of Nursing essentials as well as a shelf reference for practicing DNPs. The DNP essentials are all covered herein; each essential is covered in adequate detail to frame the foundation of the DNP educational program. This book provides the infrastructure for students, faculty, and practicing DNPs to achieve and sustain the highest level of practice.

Brady Urology Manual 1st Edition PDF Free Download

Preface:

When I was a junior resident, scrambling between operating rooms, hospital floors, outpatient clinics, and ERs, abruptly swerving from one clinical scenario to the next, I resolved to develop an easy-to-use, convenient reference manual written by urology trainees for urology trainees. The Brady Urology Manual combines basic principles of epidemiology, pathophysiology, and treatment in a concise, accessible format. It emphasizes general concepts and presents practical approaches to common problems. It is not intended as a comprehensive compendium of urological knowledge, or as a definitive guide for diagnosis and treatment, but as a practical review and quick reference manual for selected topics. To expedite information retrieval, each chapter is similarly formatted and preceded by summaries of the most salient points. This book represents the hard work of an exceptional group of individuals with whom I have had the privilege to work: the residents, visiting residents, and fellows of the James Buchanan Brady Urological Institute of the Johns Hopkins Medical Institutions. The strengths of this book belong to them, the shortcomings to me. I am also indebted to my co-editor, E James Wright m d , and to Alan W Partin m d PhD – teachers, role models, and friends, without whom this book would not have been possible. Finally, I am deeply grateful to Patrick C Walsh m d , an extraordinary mentor, whose ability to inspire excellence is exceeded only by his passion for teaching it.
