The Physiological Effects of Ageing is a comprehensive resource for all nurses working with older people, enabling them to apply their knowledge of the ageing process to their practice, and, in doing so, enhance care delivery.

  • Makes use of reflective points and points of practice
  • Looks at key topics of maintaining a safe environment and communication
  • Discusses error theory, free radical theory and the immune theory
  • A highly accessible text which encourages holistic patient-centred care
