Nursing practice and public health administration

Health care providers are increasingly confronted with the need to
manage challenges and make decisions in complex situations that are
often ambiguous and uncertain. The book provides staff, tutors and
students the needed information which enable them to analyze identify
problems, formulate possible actions, and acquire experience that is
important for autonomous practice. The book is designed to give
students opportunities to analyze, synthesize, evaluate, and apply
knowledge related to manage clients, patients and their relatives and
manage effectively health programmes. The book will also equip the
students and practitioners to be effective and efficient health care
leaders.
The book is organised in units; from concepts of change to power.
It my hope that all students both at the University and Health Training
Colleges pursuing Nursing, Midwifery and Allied Health Science will
continue to find this book worth reading and applying in their relevant
areas.
