  Reflective practice has been widely adopted as a successful method for developing nursing. The second edition of Transforming Nursing through Reflective Practice provides a wealth of new insights from practitioners actively involved in reflective practice in nursing research, education, clinical practice and practice development. This invaluable book enables nurses to continually evaluate their own practice in order to inform their approaches to reflection; critique, develop and monitor their professional practice; and thereby improve the quality of their patient care. There is a greater emphasis in the new edition on transforming practice, the research base for reflective practice and grounding the reflective process in clinical practice. It examines the contribution of reflective practice to nursing, and enables nurses to continually develop their practice and improve patient care. It includes insights from many areas of clinical practice, explores the role of reflection in clinical supervision and research studies, and examines the role of narrative and reflective dialogue in reflective practice.

  Reflective practice has been widely adopted as a successful method for developing nursing. Using critical self assessment, reflection can enable practitioners to critique, develop and monitor their professional practice and thereby improve their care of patients. This book brings together a wide range of international experience representing reflective practice from a number of different perspectives. The book is structured to enable the reader to engage in a meaningful dialogue with differing approaches and experiences of reflection as a developmental and research process. Each contribution follows a common format - defining how reflection is perceived, what area of practice is being focused on and what changes came about through this process of reflection and how was this recognised. The process of transformation is then discussed, concluding with the author's reflections. Students and practitioners alike will find this a valuable book for gaining considerable insight into the practice of reflection, to inform their own approaches to reflection and change.
