Summary:

"The author weaves in meaningful, real-life examples, case studies, and perspectives to help students understand that transitions in care are critical in today's healthcare system. Covering a multitude of community and public settings, situations, and populations, the book helps students learn about promoting health, preventing disease (not just treating it), and protecting at-risk populations--including the elderly, the LGBT community, and veterans." -- Publisher.
