Marcia Stanhope and Jeanette Lancaster have retained the best of the 5th edition of the larger text, but presented it in a streamlined and concise format. As health care services have moved into community settings, nursing education at all levels is putting more emphasis on community nursing care. The community-oriented focus of this new text emphasizes health promotion and disease prevention. The goal of community-oriented community health nursing is to preserve, protect, promote, or maintain health through the care provided to individuals, families, and groups in the community. The various roles a community health nurse might undertake are discussed in a separate unit. Another unit discusses the care of vulnerable populations in the community. Family and individual care is also the focus of a separate unit. Practical application of concepts is highlighted throughout the text through the how to, evidence based practice, and clinical application features. An attractive two color design with many features similar to those in the 5th edition of the larger text presents the content in an accessible and engaging format.
