Very straightforward and user-friendly! "An excellent clinical care
resource for nurses and nursing students alike. I found it especially
helpful the way the book organized the most commonly relevant nursing
diagnoses associated with each major condition (in prominent headers and
text boxes), managing to summarize them in concise, yet informative
sections." -ShuaiNan Fang
Nursing Care Plans."Best thing I have bought while in Nursing
School. Has helped me with all my care plans."--Diana Davison
Excellent book!"Great book for anyone who is writing care plans!
All evidence based rationales included! Good luck to all in nursing
school!"--PatDon
Prioritized interventions and rationales that I love.This is the BEST
care planning book that..."This is the BEST care planning book that I
have purchased...and I have purchased several. This one gives you a
complete rundown of a condition - pathophysiology, classification,
etiology, statistics, glossary of terms, related concerns,
labs/diagnostic procedures, patient need categories with symptoms,
priorities, goals, diagnoses, actions and interventions AND rationales
for each...yes, each! This book will not have every disease/condition,
but it has a lot. Wonderful tool when you are beginning to construct
care plans. I wish I had it earlier. Highly recommend buying both of
them together."--C.M.
