The second edition of FUNDAMENTAL NURSING CONCEPTS AND SKILLS has been updated and revised to provide comprehensive coverage of the basic concepts and skills practical/vocational nurses must master. Contents is logically organized in four units that cover foundations of nursing practice, factors that influence health and illness, basic nursing skills, and basic patient needs. To address the increased focus on nursing process, each chapter begins with an overview of how the process applies to specific content. Nursing care plans demonstrate how to translate the basic principles and interventions into practice.
This book was very helpful throughout my schooling in practical nursing. It had fully illustrated the basic skills needed to know by a starting nursing student and had described the important issues that would affect the life of a nurse. This book can be used at the start of a new career and can be used to look back in for reference.
