Nursing Law and Ethics explores a variety of key legal and ethical issues in nursing practice using a thought-provoking and holistic approach. It addresses both what the law requires and what is right, and explores whether these two are always the same. The book provides an overview of the legal, ethical and professional dimensions of nursing, followed by exploration of key issues in greater depth. This new edition features updated legislation and new material on non-medical prescribing. Accessible, relevant, and comprehensive, this title is ideal for pre- and post-registration nurses.
