This book describes the advantages of including the Neuman Systems Model within nursing curriculum and provide real world classroom examples for a variety of courses. Chapters are written by professionals from education and practice with student contributions detailing how Neuman has been incorporated and integrated with Quality and Safety Education for Nurses (QSEN). A wholistic view of nursing care encourages students to shift from a task-oriented focus to learned behaviors that take into account the multiple influencing variables in each situation. This comprehensive emphasis in focus is especially pertinent in clinical decision making as students and practicing nurses determine nursing action priorities in rapidly changing situations.
