CUSTOMER REVIEWS:

Helpful for taking written tests only -
Nursing requires a strong practical education. Most nurses will simply forget the multiple choice and true or false answers when confronted with a real world situation. Many nurses don't even wash their hands when going from patient to patient. More than 12,000 hospital patients die because of preventable errors mostly caused by nurses and nursing aids. Yes, it is also frequent that patients die because of doctor error.

A worthwhile purchase -
This book is a great book. It is easy to understand and follow. Procedures are well explained step by step and color photographs accompany the steps. The color photographs are abundant. There are lots of tables throughout the book. It has a helpful glossary in the back, as well.
