Prompt Delivery

Received my book as expected - great condition, no problems. Would purchase from them again.

Student friendly

I have been using this book for a week so far and i must say it is very helpful. It breaks down each chapter into units and each unit has step by step procedures. It also explains most of the content in a way that is easy to understand. I would definately recommend this to a student who is just beginning nursing,

Clinical Nursing Skills and Techniques Text and Checklists Package

Book was required for nursing school, checklist has too many steps. But other than that it's a pretty good book with lots of pictures demonstrating the different techniques.

Excellent Resource for Med/Surg Nursing

We utilize this book as a resource on our Med/Surg Unit. It provides step by step instruction for our new hires & a thorough review for those who haven't performed a procedure/care ina long time.
