Nursing Book

Excellent for review course when failing FL NCLEX-RN (test). Book in excellent condition and fast service

Basic but Comprehensive

Fundamental Nursing textbook that includes good coverage of all critical areas along with case studies, study questions, and vocabulary. Would be appropriate for the nurse to be or as a refresher for the experienced nurse.
