Population Health for Nurses frames foundational knowledge nurses need to practice in the traditional fields of community and public health nursing—defining the breadth of the discipline, its methods and theories, and the central concept of health equity as well as incorporating the nursing process—all within the context of population health. The text prepares nurses to develop interventions, policies, and practices in collaborative partnerships that promote health equity and improved health outcomes across the health care delivery continuum, which includes public health, acute care, ambulatory care, transitional care, and long-term care.

Population Health for Nurses emphasizes the social determinants of health and health inequities and how nurses can plan and implement health promotion and disease prevention interventions to address them. It takes a holistic perspective, connecting human health behavior to the dynamic, ongoing interactions of the person, social factors, and the physical environment in which people are born, live, learn, play, work, and age. The text encourages the critical analysis of implicit biases and practices that contribute to health inequities and presents strategies for designing culturally and linguistically appropriate programs. It challenges students to reflect on and critique their own biases, stereotypes, prejudices, and assumptions and to prioritize client self-determination in order to work effectively within each client’s cultural context.
