June Girvin – författare

What is a standard? How do you write one? How can it be used? These questions and many others are answered in June Girvin's simple handbook on the mechanics of standard setting. This book aims to provide nurses who have little experience of standard setting, with an introduction to the basic skills required. Examples from practice are used to illustrate how standards are set, monitored and how they must be acted up when required. Down to earth advice, mixed with practical information, will give nurses the confidence to participate in and influence the quality and audit processes in their work place.

This timely volume introduces the concept of leadership in an approachable and user-friendly manner. Theories and models of leadership are placed in a specific and recognisable nursing context. Ways of recognising and developing effective leadership are discussed.Like the other volumes in the series, this one invites self-study and reader participation, thereby rendering accessible a potentially daunting subject.
