Lead editors and authors, Mary de Chesnay and Barbara Anderson, continue to offer a timely and comprehensive examination of the many facets of vulnerability in health and healthcare delivery in an updated sixth edition of Caring for the Vulnerable: Perspectives in Nursing Theory, Practice, and Research. Caring for vulnerable populations presents unique challenges, and nursing students need a resource that teaches them how to understand and recognize those who are vulnerable, address their vulnerability, and implement strategies that support their healthcare needs. This book provides a wealth of information for clinicians who care for a variety of vulnerable populations. Chapters cover concepts and theories, research, practical applications, and policy-making for a well-rounded look at how nurses and clinicians can provide optimal patient-centered care and support for vulnerable populations. Thoroughly revised with 18 NEW chapters on relevant information and cases. Updated to include discussions on timely topics including the use of AI in health care, human trafficking, and the 2024 McGinley-Rice symposium. Contributors across varying fields provide interprofessional perspectives. Concepts and theories provide a foundation for clinicians to understand ways to reduce disparities and promote social justice. Vignette-style chapters cover a broad scope of issues and provide a close look at real-life scenarios a clinician may encounter. Instructor resources include an Instructor's Manual (containing essay questions, sample answers, fieldwork exercises, and student fieldwork samples), Practice Activities, Slides in PowerPoint format, and a Test Bank. Ideal for upper-level undergraduate courses as well as graduate-level population health, health promotion, and global health courses in both MSN and DNP programs. © 2026 | 500 pages
