Description

For the Medical Surgical (Med Surg) or Adult Health Course in the undergraduate nursing curriculum. Medical-Surgical Nursing: Critical Thinking in Client Care, Second Edition, by Priscilla Lemone, RN, DSN and Karen Burke, RN, MS directs your students along the pathway that teaches them to think critically, thoughtfully, and realistically about the care of clients. Nursing students and professors alike have praised the authors' clear presentation of rationale-based intervention strategies along with numerous case studies that make the learning process both real and understandable. Through an emphasis on case studies and examples, students develop decision-making skills that help them to provide safe and effective nursing interventions. Because nursing care is organized around prioritized nursing diagnoses with interventions and rationales, students quickly understand the rationale of each action. Study Wizard CD-ROM included: an interactive study program with NCLEX review, multiple choice and fill-in questions with rationales for correct and incorrect answers is packaged free with every copy of the text. Companion Website (www.prenhall.com/lemone) provides additional NCLEX Review and critical thinking practice.
