Nurses work with a wide range of people, and it is essential that they are able to understand questions such as: Who are the professionals? Who are service users and what might their needs and perspectives be? Who else is involved in the nursing process? This book will help students understand the UK policy context that makes these questions important, and prepare them for working in a team and working in an environment where roles are evolving. The book will outline UK assessment requirements and will include advice to students on gathering evidence for assessment of practice.
