Nursing Health Assessment: The Foundation of Clinical Practice

Promote quality patient care. Build confidence. Ensure safe practice. 
 51 structured case studies simulate the wide range of patient care challenges your students will encounter in practice. These scenarios help them develop the critical assessment, clinical reasoning, and nursing skills they need to deliver safe and competent care—in a controlled, risk-free environment. 
 Each realistic, patient-care simulation focuses on a defined clinical domain, critical knowledge and skills, levels of competency, evidenced-based practice guidelines, National Patient Safety Goals, and research-based design characteristics. They record their reflections at the end of each simulation to enhance self-awareness and develop insights into the patient care delivery process.
 The Facilitator Volume provides all of the information found in the Participant Volume, the answers to the student exercises and two additional testing simulations, as well as everything you need to set up, administer and facilitate each simulation.
 Receive the Facilitator Volume FREE when you adopt 20 or more copies of the Participant Volume.
