Miller's Nursing for Wellness in Older Adults was adapted for the Canadian audience with its focus on the older Canadian and the professional Canadian based nurse. This Canadian approach enables students and registered nurses to acquire fundamental knowledge about the health issues faced by older Canadians and the resources that this country can offer us to provide quality nursing care.
In every chapter of this textbook, students will have access to Canadian content and resources abound. The authors have showcased and shared many of the best practices that were developed and are being used in this country. In addition, they specifically added an evidence-informed nursing practice box that illustrates some of the research being done in this country. This is research that provides you and us, as Canadian nurses, with the evidence to inform our nursing practice. Evidence-informed practice is an expectation of the Canadian Nurses Association and all provincial / territorial jurisdictions.
