Description

Revised to emphasize critical thinking, this Fifth Edition is the most engaging, student-friendly, and comprehensive fundamentals textbook for beginning nursing students. The unique, holistic blended skills approach to nursing care integrates technical, cognitive, ethical/legal, and interpersonal skills.

Each Fifth Edition chapter opens with three real-world cases, which are used throughout the chapter as examples. Reflective Practice boxes written by Carol Taylors students describe realistic situations and ask challenging questions. The updated coverage includes discussions of evidence-based practice and a new chapter on complementary and alternative modalities.

A back-of-book CD-ROM has tutorials on NCLEX innovative items, and fluid and electrolyte balance.
