Nursing instructors release new book on nurses and families

Zahra Shajani and Diana Snell release new book about harnessing the power of the nurse-family relationship

A new edition of Wright and Leahey's Nurses and Families has just been published thanks to Zahra Shajani and Diana Snell. The 7th edition of Nurses and Families: A Guide to Family Assessment and Intervention was published in February by F. A. Davis.  

The book uses the thoroughly revised Calgary Family Assessment and Intervention Models to assess families effectively and know when and how to intervene to reduce suffering and promote health.

The book covers topics such as how to:

  • Master assessment, communication and intervention skills when working with families across the lifespan;
  • Rely on practical guidelines for family interviewing;
  • Consult clinical tools, skills, and case study examples.

Find out more about the book on the publisher's website.
