Psychiatric Care Planning, 2nd edition, is a comprehensive reference that integrates care planning and nursing diagnoses with the latest DSM-IV classifications to provide thorough clinical plans for safe, effective patient care. Each plan details the disorder's definition and causes, assessment findings, potential complications, nursing diagnoses, nursing priorities, key interventions and rationales, outcome criteria, and discharge criteria. New features include a complete revamping of care plans to incorporate DSM-IV criteria, new information on the latest drags used in psychiatric nursing, such as fluoxetine hydrochloride (Prozac) and venlafaxine hydrochloride (Effexor), new sample clinical pathways for commonly occurring conditions and a attractive, inviting new design throughout.
