Customer Reviews

Ausc. skills

This book comes with CDs and is very informative and clear, use CDs while driving and I love it. It is great for the new NP/MD/PA and for those who need to review their skills.

Great for students and nurses alike.

I bought this as a nursing student, 5 years ago, and never wrote a review for it. I love this product. In nursing school we are taught what different lung and heart sounds should sound like. However, reading what something sounds like and actually hearing it make all the difference. This CD breaks down different sounds nursing students and nurses should be familiar with. It's a good refresher for a nurse who hasn't had a patient with rales or hasn't heard a gallop in a while. I'd recommend this to nursing instructors, students, and nurses.
