Community and Public Health Nursing: Evidence for Practice
Rosanna DeMarco, Judith Healey-Walsh · 4th Edition · Wolters Kluwer
Complete chapter-by-chapter study guide aligned with Community and Public Health Nursing: Evidence for Practice (4th Edition). Includes summaries, learning objectives, and NCLEX-style practice questions for all 10 chapters.
Overview
Community and Public Health Nursing: Evidence for Practice (4th Edition) by DeMarco and Healey-Walsh is a core text in community and public health nursing courses, focused on population-level health and the evidence behind public health practice. This study guide follows it chapter by chapter, in the same order your faculty teach, focusing on the high-yield concepts these courses test. The available chapters cover the context of community and public health nursing, including foundations of public health nursing, public health systems, health policy, politics, and reform, and global health, and the evidence-based practice and population-health section, including frameworks for health promotion, disease prevention, and risk reduction, and gathering evidence for public health practice. It is an independent, aligned study guide, not the textbook or a copy of it. Use it to consolidate the public health frameworks, epidemiologic rates, and prevention concepts that community-health course exams and NCLEX community-health questions reward.
Aligned with community and public health nursing courses; the review reinforces the public health frameworks, epidemiologic rates, and prevention concepts tested on course exams and the community-health portion of the NCLEX-RN.
