Summary:

Promoting health is the essence of nursing itself. The scope of nursing has expanded beyond basic skills required for restoration of health. It is shifting from a biomedical approach to one that emphasizes health and wellness with recognition of individual choice, partnering with clients, and incorporation of multidisciplinary approaches.-- Provides coverage of health promotion for the Health Professional usually not seen in a book on health promotion. These include stressors that affect nursing professionals such as the aging clientele, aging nursing workforce, nursing shortage, role conflict, and change.-- Focuses reader's attention on the health promotion needs of not only the client but of professionals as well.-- Utilization of the nursing process in developing a health promotion plan for the health care professional provides a unique approach to resolving or preventing health promotion problems in the professional's career.
