4.0 out of 5 stars lab in a book, March 27, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Clinical Nursing Skills & Techniques - Revised Reprint, 5e (Paperback)
I don't understand why we had to purchase this book for a nursing fundamentals lab since the lab instructor gives us the relevant information verbally. Not useful except maybe as a reference for the forgetful.

***REVISED REVIEW***
Having now graduated from nursing school and started in the working world, I have greater appreciation for this text. I refer to it occasionally at work as it is hard to remember the specifics for everything if you go for months without having a patient that requires X procedure. This is a textbook where it is important to have the most up-to-date edition, however.
