In the context of providing care to the older people, nursing involves maintaining effective communication with the patients, which in turn is helpful in obtaining patient outcomes. Caring for the elderly requires the usage of appropriate body language, exercising the patient, showing respect, listening actively to the patient, recognizing sensory challenges, and showing empathy. This book provides comprehensive insights on caring for older people. It elucidates the concepts and innovative models around prospective developments with respect to the studies on this area of nursing practice. Those in search of information to further their knowledge will be greatly assisted by this book.Book Synopsis
