Nursing Lifeline,

This review is from: Nursing Care Planning Guides: For Adults in Acute, Extended and Home Care Settings (Paperback)
I use this book everytime I create a care plan for nursing school. It has nearly every medical diagnosis you could have to develop goals, interventions, rationales, etc. It is mainly for adult med surg units, but can offer some assistant in children and adolescents.

Good in areas but limited - not for beginning student,

This review is from: Nursing Care Planning Guides: For Adults in Acute, Extended and Home Care Settings (Paperback)
I am a nursing student and will go for my RN in 14 months. IMO, this book is not good for a student. It is heavily geared toward acute (i.e. hospital settings) but is useless for anything else (psychiatric nursing, nursing home settings, etc.) For example, 'failure to thrive, adult' isn't listed in the index even though it is a valid nursing diagnosis. Most of my fellow students have given up on this one and bought other books.

This review is from: Nursing Care Planning Guides: For Adults in Acute, Extended and Home Care Settings (Paperback)
By and large,I often feel that an easy to read and interpret nursing book is difficult to find. With the complexities of our work being interwoven between medicine, pyschology, and pharmacology, today's nurse needs to be able to review and prepare from a simply reliable source. With the infiltration of the likes of youtube.com and other widely used internet sources, the pleasureable experience of securing a written source of peer-reviewed information is welcomed. Nonetheless, this book covers disease processes across the age spectrum, providing sound rationale and intervention in every page. Nonetheless, I recommend it to the nursing student, new graduate, novice and expert. Likewise, I feel this book is a useful tool for the nurse attempting to maintain their credentialed knowledge as he or she seeks a stable means of employment that may require reiteration and access to proven methods of care.
