ABOUT THE SERIES: The Understanding Nursing Associate Practice series (UNAP) is a new collection of books uniquely designed to support trainee Nursing Associates throughout their training and into a professional career.
I am thrilled to see this text written specifically for Nursing Associates. Written in an easy-to-read style, this handy book provides Nursing Associate students with the key information relating to medicines management, be it a development to their previous role or new knowledge and technical skill. Incorporation of case studies makes the content more real for the learner, demonstrating fitness to practice. This is an invaluable supportive text for all Nursing Associates embarking on their educational journey.
Not adopted as I only teach nursing students but it was very useful in understanding the background that nursing associates have when they join in 2nd year as apprentices. A very helpful text.
Clearly written and easy for students to follow.
Supports the teaching of medicine management.
