Average Customer Ratings:

Designed to provide concise, focused information on nursing in the community, this easy-to-read textbook covers everything a nurse practicing in this specialty needs to know – from nursing roles and care settings to vulnerable population groups. It features a practical, "community-oriented" approach, with an emphasis on health promotion and disease prevention. Now in full color throughout, this edition provides new chapters on vulnerable populations and evidence-based practice, as well as expanded coverage of key topics such as bioterrorism and homeland security. * The various roles and settings for community health nursing are discussed, for a comprehensive perspective on this field. * Clinical Applications present real-life community client situations with questions and answers. * Evidence-Based Practice boxes focus on recent research findings and applications to community nursing practice. * What Would You Do? activities sharpen problem-solving skills and challenge students to apply chapter material outside the classroom. * Briefly Noted sections present topics for discussion, special clinical considerations, and facts of interest related to chapter content. * How To boxes present specific, application-oriented information. * Health promotion is emphasized throughout with discussions of how national public health efforts impact community health practice, and Healthy People 2010 objectives for various areas are highlighted in special boxes.

CUSTOMER REVIEWS:

excellent -
The book and CD are New and the service are excellent!! Thank you very much!!

Great Buy -
I purchased this book one week before class started and I received it before I even had any reading assigned! The seller was very prompt and honest about the condition of the book. I would definitely purchase from this seller again.

Average nursing textbook -
This textbook seems to be on par with the other texts I have had to purchase for nursing school. Nothing incredibly wonderful in terms of organization or content. Seems repetitive in places. Relatively well written in terms of syntax and vocabulary choice. I was able to read through the chapters without having to stop and disseminate what the authors were trying to say, so that was definitely positive. I do like the soft-back option - helps to cut down on the weight of the book. I read the first 11 chapters of this book then just used the rest as a reference.

Good Book, Horrible Test Bank Questions -
The book itself is full of good information about community nursing. The test bank questions are horrible.
