"How to Nurse: Relational Inquiry in Action, 2nd edition offers students a theoretically sound, research-informed way of navigating the complexities of real-life nursing practice. Research shows there is a gap between education and practice, and this book helps fill that gap by giving students a framework-a relational inquiry framework- to help prepare them to be safe, competent, ethical providers. Highlighting examples from acute and community-based settings throughout all chapters, the authors show the link of their relational inquiry approach and how it can be implemented in practice. Because students can't be exposed to every situation they might encounter as professionals and because situations might evolve that might not even seem conceivable today, the authors avoid the pitfall of other texts that are limited to authoritative, "how-to" practice prescriptions. Instead, the authors foster critical thinking skills and encourage students to explore the complexities of everyday nursing through "Try It Out" and "This Week in Practice" learning activities"--
