An essential handbook for all students and professionals working in health and social care who have to complete a personal profile or portfolio, this thoroughly revised, re-written and updated edition has been expanded to include social care as well as nursing, and covers a subject which is now compulsory for pre-qualifying students as well as a statutory requirement for all health and social care professionals.
