Caring for the Vulnerable focuses on vulnerable populations and how nurses can care for them, develop programs for them, conduct research, and influence health policy. Units I and II focus on concepts and theories; Unit III on research; Units IV, V, and VI on practice-oriented measures, including teaching nursing students to work with vulnerable patients and clients; and Unit VII on policy. It provides a broad overview of material critical to working with these populations, comprehensive treatment of issues related to vulnerable populations, outstanding contributors who are experts in what they write, and a global focus. Continuing the effort undertaken in the Fourth Edition, the authors will continue to focus more on DNP authors and assess each chapter for relevance to DNP-prepared nurses in the Fifth Edition. While most of the adoptions for this title are at the graduate level, we do have a fair amount of business in higher-level undergrad courses as well. For this reason, the authors plan to balance their focus on the DNP audience with an effort to maintain the universality of the text. This text is generally used as a supplement in a wide variety of courses - from health promotion to population health, to global health
