Focus on Adult Health: Medical-Surgical Nursing, is uniquely designed to prepare today’s students to succeed as practicing nurses by focusing on the most important medical disorders and key nursing responsibilities.

“As the demand for nurses continues to grow, new nurses are entering a dynamic and challenging work environment, and many feel unprepared,” said Linda H. Pellico, RN, PhD, the lead author and editor of the textbook. “We developed this textbook and related tools to prepare students for the reality of medical-surgical nursing. We need to teach students how to think like a nurse, and how to focus quickly on the most critical aspects. Beyond taking care of what you see, nursing is about predicting and preventing risks, so this book details risk factors, clinical presentation, and treatment.”

The textbook prepares students for both the NCLEX exam and for daily nursing practice by focusing on the need-to-know content. Both the text and the supporting tools include features designed to reinforce student understanding, such as:

 

·         Focused Assessment Guides, which summarize key content for quick reference and review,

 

·         Guidelines for Nursing Care: Clear, step-by-step “how to” procedures are paired with action rationales to explain why actions are important,

 

·         Innovative Art Program: Connects text-based concepts with real-life patient scenarios,

 

·         Nursing alerts, evidence-based practice boxes, and risk factor boxes, to keep students engaged and increase their comprehension.

 

Review :
Convenient but incomplete

The conversion of the text from the written book to the e-book version is somewhat garbled. For example, the subscripts and super scripts seem to give them the most trouble. However, the biggest complaint I have is that the tables and photos are only scanned in, and are not re-sizable. In many cases, the text within is so garbled as to be useless. Finally, the instructor of the course set much of the reading material to reference specific page numbers in the hard cover text (i.e. read pages 84-88, or look at table on page 1014). This makes the references all but impossible, as the e-book does not provide true page references. Found that I may have saved a few bucks, and perhaps a few pounds, but the learning experience was made tremendously more challenging.

NEW NEW NEW!!!

I needed this book for my nursing school.
Amazon was selling the exact same book for $121(it went up to $131 one time).
Comparing $69.96+3.99(S&H)=$73.95 to $121 was easy, but I thought the cheaper book, i will miss something.
I took a chance and order it. I received a brand new book with the CODE inside.
I was extremely happy!
Thank you!!

great ebook, unless you need the online portion that should come with this book, then it's awful.

Does not have online access code. They made me buy a separate prep u part that did not come with the online version. Useless.

Don't buy the ebook, it does not same you money or space. If you have to, buy the hard copy.
