Written for both pre-registration nursing students and existing nursing practitioners, this book provides a collection of realistic fictional scenarios that explore how nurses tackle clinical dilemmas, weigh up options and make good decisions based on a sound understanding of theory related to practice.

This book provides an annotated thinking aloud framework for critical reflection that identifies the relevant values, theories, approaches and models being used, allowing readers to really understand how theory can be applied to practice. It provides students and educators with opportunities to discuss clinical dilemmas in a safe space in which they can explore their own values and beliefs, apply professional knowledge and consider new approaches to nursing.

Featured in these clinical scenarios are professional dilemmas they may not have yet encountered in their practice to help them uncover new methods of decision-making. It explores best practice and takes account of other professional perspectives, including challenges and barriers to interdisciplinary working. After using this book learners will feel confident in their problem-solving and decision-making abilities.
