Build a solid foundation in the knowledge and skills you need to
succeed as a nurse! Designed specifically for today's students,
Fundamentals of Nursing, 3rd Edition takes a fresh, conversational
approach that is friendlier than typical books on nursing
fundamentals. To make understanding easier, the book introduces
basic information first and then follows with progressively more
nuanced and complex nursing concepts. Practical exercises provide a
unique kind of active learning, allowing you to apply concepts to
actual patient care. Even care planning is different, as authors
Barbara L. Yoost and Lynne R. Crawford are pioneers of conceptual
care mapping - a visual, holistic way of making clinical judgments
and planning patient care. Essentially, this text offers an easier,
fundamentally different way to learn the nursing profession!
UNIQUE! Building-block approach uses review questions and exam
questions tied to learning objectives, starting at lower Bloom's
taxonomy levels in the early chapters and building to more complex
levels as you acquire more knowledge. UNIQUE! Warm, friendly
writing style introduces concepts and terms more slowly, giving you
time to practice, think critically, and gain mastery. Case studies
open each chapter with real-world scenarios, helping you build
analytical, critical thinking, and clinical judgment skills.
Coverage of complementary therapies is integrated throughout the
text, reflecting changes to the NCLEX® exam. Emphasis on
assignment and delegation describes the differences between the two
skills, and how and when they are appropriate for an RN. UNIQUE!
Objective-driven approach presents clearly defined, numbered
learning objectives that coordinate with all content and then wrap
up with Objective Summaries. UNIQUE! Active learning activities
help you apply chapter content to broader nursing concepts and
realistic patient scenarios. UNIQUE! Conceptual care mapping is
used throughout the text in conjunction with the Conceptual Care
Map creator to help you develop clinical judgment and plans of
care. Boxed features cover the areas of interprofessional
collaboration and delegation, ethical and legal practice, patient
education and healthy literacy, health assessment questions,
diversity considerations, evidence-based practice and informatics,
home care considerations, QSEN, and safe practice alerts. NEW!
Clinical Judgment in Nursing chapter introduces the concept of
clinical judgment and the six NCSBN Clinical Judgment Measurement
Model Skills. NEW! Clinical judgment steps are integrated within
the nursing process.
