Developing Professional Judgement in Health Care: Learning Through the Critical Appreciation of Practice Colin Coles
Every day health care professionals have to make judgements which can affect patients' lives and for which they are accountable. This crucially important ability is rarely taught formally but is merely 'picked up' throughout a professional's career. This book show how practitioners can draw on their own experience of practice to improve the quality of their judgements.
