Nursing Ethics took 2nd Place in the 2023 AJN Book of the Year Awards!
While the entire text contains 12 chapters, we have selected five for this activity designed to satisfy the ethics requirement for Board-certified case managers. It is beautifully written and easy to read, focusing on Nursing Ethics Across the Life Span. It underscores how ethics is interwoven with nearly every aspect of professional nursing practice. Engaging features include case studies, legal perspectives, and research notes to bring concepts to life and serve to remind readers that ethics really does sit at the heart of professional nursing practice and quality patient care.
