Ajn The American Journal Of Nursing - Behind The Article

Editor-in-chief Shawn Kennedy and clinical managing editor Karen Roush present the highlights of the February issue of the American Journal of Nursing. AJN’s cover features a color-enhanced X-ray showing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) developing in the lungs of an 83-year-old man, tying in with one of this month’s CE articles on “COPD Exacerbations.” The second CE is a qualitative original research article describing the perioperative experiences of patients with Parkinson’s Disease. And of course, there’s News, an AJN Reports on post-Sandy health care recovery, a Viewpoint on minorities in the nursing profession, Drug Watch, Art of Nursing, Reflections, and more.
