SUMMARY
Within an expanding field of study in both undergraduate and graduate nursing curricula, Caring
for the Vulnerable: Perspectives in Nursing Theory, Practice, and Research, Third Edition
explores vulnerability from the perspective of individuals, groups, communities, and populations
while addressing how vulnerability affects nurses, nursing, and nursing care. This new edition
presents a basic structure for caring for the vulnerable with the ultimate goal of providing
culturally competent care, and includes a fantastic Companion Website with learning tools and
resources for students.
Theoretical and research chapters progress towards others offering meaningful learning
experiences for both nursing students and practitioners. Since nurses are the crucial link between
those who are vulnerable and those with access to solutions, this text provides ideas for how
nurses might advocate for the vulnerable on a policy level. Written specifically for nurses by
nurses, Caring for the Vulnerable: Perspectives in Nursing Theory, Practice, and Research,
Third Edition is a timely and necessary response to the culturally diverse, vulnerable populations
for whom nurses must provide appropriate and precise care.
