- Two new chapters address six concepts and processes fundamental to the practice of nursing - Nursing Process, Caring, Communication and Documentation, Cultural Awareness, Self-Care, and Teaching/Learning - now identified and integrated throughout the four major categories of Client Needs in the most recent NCLEX-PN test plan.
