Nice book for study of procedures nurses do

I can't give this five stars yet because I haven't used it per se in actual client care as I have just completed my first semester of nursing school. I have enjoyed reading it very much due to its organization though I wish it was just a book of implementations only for quick reference as to the how to's and order of's like page 352 on inserting a NG tube. But there are plenty of pages like this so it's great! While it's true you can find most of this information in the Kozier textbook, I think it is more important in the long run to have this book over the main textbook for your work as a nurse. You can't lug around that heavy textbook to search for the procedures mixed in with so much reading. This book has this information in a nice reference that you could carry with you to clinical or bettter yet, study the night before/in between clinicals. I like this book all the more because I don't like studying from giant textbooks (and wish all of them were divided into at least 4 sections for easy portability to classes and easy and comfortable studying!) Good luck future nurses! Soar!
