About this book

The first medicines management textbook for trainee nursing associates!

Effectively managing and administering medicines is a core responsibility for all nursing associates. This book covers everything a trainee nursing associate needs to master, from understanding the fundamental legal and professional requirements to developing essential drug calculations skills.

Key features:

  • Written specifically to address the unique experiences, challenges and requirements of the nursing associate role and fully mapped to the NMC standards of proficiency (2018).
  • Activities help trainees get to grips with the key skills and responsibilities of the role and allow them to practice calculations.
  • Wide-ranging case studies cover all fields and a variety of clinical settings to show how this knowledge applies to practice.
