Body Image and Body Image Disturbances
by Andreas Uschok
Description
Nurses encounter patients whose body image reality has been changed by disease, injuries or traumas on a daily basis. In a world where a flawless body is so highly valued, these patients may struggle to adapt to and accept these changes which can lead to body image disturbances.
This handbook provides all those professionals caring for people with amputations, skin disorders, stoma, breast cancer and other diseases with information on the concept of body image and how to assess it, as well as describe possible symptoms and causes of body image disturbances and offers interventions to improve patients’ body image.
Target Group: health scientists, geographers, doctors (epidemiologists).
