Fully examines the practical nature of counseling, concentrating in particular on the sensitive nature of caring. Topics covered include support systems, the bearing of ethical issues on nursing practice, and the special skills required to give appropriate advice in the case of bereavement. The book's theoretical underpinning is the author's "Four Question Model": What is happening? What is the meaning of it? What is your goal? and How are you going to do it?
