Excellent legal text with real life case examples to aid the reader in understanding the legal process and its application to practice. Excellent chapters on safeguarding and consent which is particularly relevant to children's nursing.

I really like the "question and answer" style of this book. It makes for a refreshing read. Although the title is for nurses, the information is easily applicable to AHP's
