- Summary:
- Relied upon by faculty as a centerpiece for their health policy courses, the newly updated Third Edition of Health Policy and Politics continues to expand on the relationship between health policy and politics and the field of nursing. Practicing clinicians and administrators will also learn how health policy affects them and how to become politically active. Health Policy walks readers through the process of public policy making, including agenda setting, government response, program response, implementation, and evaluation and teaches nurses in advanced practice how to deliver quality health care by appropriate providers in a cost-effective manner.
