Abstract:	The Oxford Handbook of Primary Care and Community Nursing is written by primary care nurses and other experts in their field, who are directly engaged in current practice, research and policy activities. It addresses the knowledge and skills needed by nurses working in modern primary care that cuts across speciality and care settings. In addition to essential core clinical information, it also provides the organisational knowledge necessary for primary care nurses, who work on the interface of the statutory and voluntary sectors in health, education and social care. Covering all aspects of primary care nursing, chapters range from common childhood and adult health problems to chronic disease management, cancer screening, travel health advice, infection control, home care, and medicine management and nurse prescribing. It also includes information on how health and social care services are organised and funded, quality assurance, clinical governance and risk management in primary care, and technical procedures common in primary care settings.
