Level 2 (highly dependent) patients are nursed in a variety of clinical areas. High Dependency Nursing Care has been written for pre qualified and post qualified students undertaking modules and placements to prepare them for nursing the acutely ill and nurses caring for these patients. Written by a team of nurses experienced in providing, supporting and developing high dependency care, it discusses practical issues and explores the current evidence base for clinical practice.
This essential textbook covers the context of care with chapters on fundamental aspects, such as sleep, nutrition, pain management and stress. It goes on to look at the main causes of critical illness and the treatments often given, as well as the skills necessary for monitoring patients. Completely updated throughout, this second edition also includes new chapters on infection control, heart failure, tissue removal and transferring the sicker patient.
High Dependency Nursing Care is:
Comprehensive: it covers all the key areas of knowledge needed
User-friendly: it includes learning outcomes, introductions, time out exercises, implications for practice, useful websites and up-to-date references
Clearly written: by a team of experienced nurses
Practically based: clinical scenarios provide stimulating discussion and revision topics

'This second edition of Moore and Woodrow’s text has been re-written to acknowledge the substantial contribution to high dependency care provided by nurses working on acute wards. This is achieved to good effect and the resulting text provides a valuable source of comprehensive, contemporary and easily accessible clinical knowledge and skills. This text should find a place on every acute ward and should also be recommended as a key text for final year undergraduate nurses. It is likely to also provide a rich source of reference for nurses working in primary care.' – Ruth Endacott, University of Plymouth, UK
‘This new edition includes important additional chapters, for example rehabilitation, which reflect recent changes to health provision and national guidelines. Other chapters are revised and provide up to date evidence to care for this growing group of patients. This comprehensive book continues to be an essential text for practitioners in critical and acute care.’ – Jane Roe, Kingston University and St George's, University of London, UK
