Women’s Healthcare in Advanced Practice Nursing, 3rd Edition, is a textbook designed for advanced practice nursing students providing equitable and unbiased care. The volume addresses women's health through a holistic perspective that integrates considerations of ethnicity, social class, and disability.
The text explores theoretical frameworks to guide clinical practice, health promotion and prevention, and the management of health conditions. It broadens traditional care models to encompass transgender and nonbinary individuals while examining primary care issues that disproportionately affect females.
All chapters incorporate updated evidence-based research, current clinical guidelines, and information on health disparities. The volume also aligns relevant content with national certification examination blueprints for WHNP and CNM credentials.
