Why buy separate study guides for each nursing course when all you need is one? This is the ultimate, all-in-one study guide to the core information nursing students need for success in all of their foundational courses and on the NCLEX-RN. Written in a succinct, well-organized, easy-to-read format, this affordable guide contains everything an undergraduate nursing student needs to know from the first day of school through the NCLEX-RN. The second edition is updated to mirror the new NCLEX-RN test plan and includes critical new information about medications, lab values, assessments, cultural considerations, and emerging disorders and viruses. It includes a completely new section on hematological disorders, two new chapters on Emergency Nursing and anxiety-reducing Test-Taking Strategies, and psychiatric content that corresponds to the DSM-V.
