Applying the Roper-Logan-Tierney Model in Practice

The Roper-Logan-Tierney Model of Nursing (RLT model) supports nurses in taking a holistic approach to care by considering how an illness or injury affects an individual’s psychological, social, economic and spiritual life. The RLT model has become synonymous with nursing practice and education and is widely used in health care worldwide.

This important textbook supports students in applying the RLT model in real life. It covers how to assess the 12 Activities of Living that impact patients’ lives and health, and then plan, implement and evaluate appropriate care according to the latest evidence and within the current health care context.

This new fourth edition has been comprehensively updated to align with NMC standards and is packed full of learning activities that will appeal to student nurses, nurse associates and nurse educators alike.
