Synopsis

Specifically designed to enhance your knowledge and skills within generalist palliative care, this informative textbook provides a comprehensive overview of the principle areas you may encounter whilst working with adult palliative and end-of-life patients, and their families.<br /> <br /> The development of the text has been backed by Macmillan Cancer Support and each chapter has been written by a range of specialist and generalist authors. The topics covered include approaches to palliative care and symptom management in a wide range of conditions and populations, with chapters linked to case studies to encourage interactive learning and understanding. Communication skills are also highlighted to help aid confidence when engaging in open and difficult conversations.<br /> <br /> The text is in line with Scottish Palliative Care Guidelines and the NES Framework for Palliative and End of Life Care. The book may either be used as course reading for relevant training programmes, such as the Enhanced Palliative Care course, as well as by healthcare professionals hoping to develop their skills and practice. It is aimed at anyone involved in management and prescribing within non-specialist palliative care, both in hospitals and in the community, including paramedics, nurses, doctors, pharmacists, and other key health professionals.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Neil Pryde graduated from Edinburgh University Medical School in 1982. He trained as a GP registrar in South Yorkshire, returning to Scotland in 1987 where he was a GP Principal in Fife for 26 years. During this time he developed an interest in Palliative Medicine, and since 2009 he worked for the Fife Specialist Palliative Care service. In 2013 he was appointed to the post of Macmillan Lead Cancer GP for NHS Fife. He chaired the revision of the Scottish Palliative Care Guidelines that were released in 2019. Neil's other area of interest in medicine is motorsport and trauma. He was Chief Medical Officer at Knockhill Racing Circuit for 25 years and has taught on trauma courses in the UK and Europe. This led to the idea of developing a similar style of course for Palliative Medicine. He retired from clinical medicine in 2019.
