    • Health and Wellbeing for Older People

      Foundations for Practice
      • 1st Edition
      • Anne Squire
      • English
      This unique book provides one of the first and certainly the most practical approach to considering the needs of this population. It addresses important issues such as choice, partnership and community development in order that health promoters can work with and alongside older people to ensure that their health needs are addressed. The text contains numerous examples of good practice and is intentionally interactive, encouraging practitioners to reflect upon and question the assumptions that they make about the health and life-quality expectations for which older people have the potential. Its pragmatic and practical approach encourages the reader to then address these issues in their own practice.

    • Men's Health

      An Introduction for Nurses and Health Professionals
      • 1st Edition
      • Tony Harrison + 1 more
      • English
      Mens health covers a variety of physical, psychological, social, lifestyle and political factors, all of which will be covered in the book. As the whole concept is still emerging, the text will not attempt to be either comprehensive or definitive, but will be seen to add to the pool of knowledge and help set the agenda for future work.
