Veterinary Nursing Care Plans: Theory and Practice

Autor Helen Ballantyne
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 23 feb 2018

This book offers a broad overview of the theory and practice of care planning in veterinary nursing, answering three key questions:

  • What are nursing care plans?
  • Why should nursing care plans be used in practice?
  • How should nursing care plans be used in practice?

It provides basic definitions and explanations which will be useful to those unfamiliar with nursing care plans. For those veterinary nurses and technicians who are using nursing care plans, the content stimulates debate and discussion, by covering some of the philosophical and theoretical aspects of nursing and drawing comparisons and contrasts between the veterinary and human nursing roles and contexts.

There is a pressing need for veterinary nurses to establish themselves as professionals and develop their unique role within the veterinary care team. Nursing care plans are a core tool to support that development.  

It is hoped that veterinary nurses may borrow tools from the pages of this book or use it as a resource design their unique care plans: either way, this practical guide will support the application of care planning, no matter the species of the animal kingdom for whom you are caring.

Recenzii

Nursing Care Plans are now becoming an essential part of nursing animals in our care. They are embedded into the syllabus of Veterinary Nursing students and this knowledge should be developed through a RVN’s career. Helen manages to take the important points for care plans and put them into a useable format that any veterinary nurse or student can learn from and develop their knowledge. I would absolutely recommend this book to anyone who wants to enhance their nursing skills and documentation with patients.

Helen Ballantyne has done an excellent job: the book is appropriately referenced, takes wonderful comparisons from human nursing, addresses common concerns and questions about nursing care plans, and above all makes the concept of these plans very relatable to the daily practice of veterinary nurses and technicians.

Veterinary Nursing Care Plans: Theory and Practice does a thorough job in defining nursing care plans. Although veterinary nursing plans are not commonly used in current practice in America, the author makes a convincing argument for their implementation. She highlights the importance of providing holistic care, improving client communication, promoting collaboration among the veterinary team, and instituting clinical governance and asserts that the use of veterinary nursing plans can facilitate those aims and increase the bottom line of a practice.

This book is well structured. It begins by introducing care plans – what they are, and why and how they should be used. The author includes examples of different types of plan, such the Roper, Logan and Tierney model and also Orem. This makes it ideal for students like myself who are learning about care plans and how to implement them effectively in practice. It would also be a great read for those wanting to optimise their use of such plans in practice. I believe this is a fantastic book; it has greatly expanded my knowledge of care planning and its successful implementation and I would recommend it to anyone seeking to learn more about care planning.
