    • • Clinical care delivery and optimal patient outcomes
    • • Healthy work environments
    • • Strategic, financial, and human resource management

    • • Networking, partnering, and collaborating
    • • Accountability/advocacy for their employees

    The publication also addresses 17 updated national standards, which offer a framework for evaluating practice outcomes and goals, as well as for what is expected of all gerontology nurses, and its scope of practice specifies the who, what, where, when, why, and how of their practice.

    This new book is a must-have for the aspiring or practicing gerontology nurse or any registered nurse.
