DESCRIPTION:
Need to purchase instructors manual from publisher though RN Educator Great resource for case studies. In depth, however the results are not given and a determination is difficult without the additional instructor resource manual.

Each blueprint and case is different just as each clinical situation is unique. Case Studies in Medical-Surgical, Pharmacologic, and Psychiatric Nursing provides 120 nursing case histories that include critical thinking questions and answers based on real-life client situations. Examples of these variables include age, gender, cultural influences, pre-existing conditions, legal issues, or communication skills. By simulating the decision-making process, learners gain the confidence needed to make informed clinical judgments that will make them successful practitioners. Created especially for nurses, the Clinical Decision Making series helps to bridge the gap between content knowledge and clinical application. Every case contains a "blueprint" of variables that must be considered while evaluating a particular scenario, and are pertinent concerning the client nursing protocol and setting of care. Simply stated, Clinical Decision Making shortens the distance between theory and practice like no other educational tool!
