A comprehensive approach to care promotes critical thinking and
clinical judgment to teach students how to “Think Like a Nurse” from
the very first day. A consistent and concise organization along with a
wealth of pedagogical features emphasizes the Thinking, Doing, and
Caring at the heart of professional practice.
In every chapter,
students first explore the theoretical knowledge behind key
Fundamentals concepts. Then, they learn the practical knowledge guided
by the nursing process; and finally, the skills and procedures for safe
and effective nursing care.
