align with the latest NCLEX-PN text plan. Nursing Process sections
in each clinical chapter emphasize a nursing process approach to
care and provide rationales in italics for all interventions.

the special considerations students need to remember when caring
for clients who are receiving specific drugs. Evidence-Based
