Description
The Nursing series of handbooks presents core nursing information in the clear, conversational, practical style of the award-winning Nursing journal. Each handbook features to-the-point bulleted text, explanatory illustrations, and icons that echo familiar column names in the journal.

Icons include Action Stat! for urgent interventions, Alert for important clinical facts, Do's & Don'ts for technique and intervention advice, and Drug Challenge for drugs that interfere with test results.
