Reworded: The LWW Group published the 9th edition of a book that earned second place in the 2017 AJN Book of the Year Awards in Gerontologic Nursing. This text is designed to equip students with the knowledge and skills needed for effective gerontological practice. With updated content and a holistic approach, it covers the aging process, healthy aging factors, and unique aspects of disease management in older adults. The book includes features like Concept Mastery Alerts, Consider This Case, Bringing Research to Life, Practice Realities, and Critical Thinking Exercises to help students apply what they have learned. In-text learning aids like bolded key terms, communication tips, points to ponder, key concepts, and chapter summaries also help students master the material. Furthermore, the book includes Nursing Diagnosis Highlights, Nursing Care Plans, and Assessment Guides to provide practical models for effective health care planning. To enhance clinical reasoning skills, the book is supported by digital solutions such as PrepU (adaptive quizzing), DocuCare (educational EHR software), and vSim (realistic virtual simulations co-developed by Laerdal Medical and Wolters Kluwer).
