Nurses are on the front line when it comes to providing health care to sick and injured patients. This puts them at a particular risk for serious workplace health and safety issues. This book is designed to teach students seeking certification training in nursing programs about potential safety concerns in the nursing field and how to address them. In the first section the author advises the reader on basic principles that can improve patient, nursing, and facility safety. He then considers specific issues, like administrative area safety, blood-borne pathogens and workplace violence, that can arise in the nursing practice. Also included are additional resources like a nurse safety perception survey and review exercises that make the book an ideal reference for students.
