Best book for NANDA's, easy to use

In our program they use Carpinito mostly but allow other sources as you prefer, I found myself using this book for every single care plan, its easy to look up NANDAs by diagnosis which is super handy and reliable----this book was a God-send for me and my care planning! I always exceeded the required grade on my care plans using this book.

Great Condition

This book was shipped and delivered to me in a timely manner. It is in great conditiion I would have never thought that I didnt get this book from a regular book store. I will definitely order from this website again.

Best Care Plan Book

This is an amazing book for doing care plans. Think of your patient and what characteristics they have. Then apply the nursing diagnosis. If they use a walker, have unsteady gait, think of a fall risk. This book will help you identify patient characteristics and apply it in a logical way to your care plans. Very beneficial to nursing students. Also referenced for specific disorders. What nursing diagonsis are applied to patients with diagnosis of pneumonia or edema. The will be the best care plan book on your shelf.

Good seller

The book is kind of old-school so somewhat hard to follow, but the shipper is great -- I got it quickly!
