Summary

Awarded first place in the 2020 AJN Book of the Year Award in the Community & Public Health category

How do you solve population-level health problems and develop appropriate nursing interventions?

This unique, problem-solving, case-based approach shows you how. You’ll encounter different case studies in every chapter—that explore concepts such as community assessments, public health policy, and surveillance. Step by step, you’ll develop the knowledge and skills you need to apply public health principles across a variety of health care settings, special populations, and scenarios.
