Health and wellness is a fundamental aspect of human life that should be promoted for all ages and population groups. The 9th Edition of Health Promotion Throughout the Life Span, authored by nursing experts Carole Edelman and Elizabeth Kudzma, provides a comprehensive guide to leading health promotion concepts. This bestselling text covers the latest research and trends in health promotion and disease prevention, with a lifespan approach that addresses the unique needs of patients.
The book is divided into separate chapters that focus on population groups, including individuals, families, and communities. Each chapter highlights the unique aspects of assessment and health promotion for each group. Coverage of growth and development helps readers apply health promotion concepts to individuals at different stages of life. Case studies present realistic situations with questions that require readers to apply key concepts, while care plans include nursing diagnoses, defining characteristics, related factors, expected outcomes, and interventions.
Quality and Safety Scenario boxes provide examples of health promotion competencies related to quality and safety. Innovative Practice boxes outline unique and creative health promotion programs and projects that are currently being implemented. Healthy People 2020 boxes present goals and objectives related to national health issues and priorities. Research for Evidence-Based Practice boxes summarize current health-promotion studies that demonstrate the links between research, theory, and practice. Diversity Awareness boxes address cultural perspectives related to planning care. Hot Topics boxes introduce significant issues, trends, and controversies in health promotion.
By promoting health and wellness for all ages and population groups, we can improve the overall quality of life and reduce the burden of disease. This book serves as a valuable resource for healthcare professionals, educators, and individuals who are committed to improving the health and well-being of their communities.
