This comprehensive reference helps readers create care plans for clients in the acute care, extended care, or home care setting. For each of more than 60 individual disorders, detailed care plans feature a definition/discussion of the disorder, outcome/discharge criteria, nursing and collaborative diagnosis, desired outcomes, nursing actions and selected purposes/rationales, NIC interventions and NOC outcomes, and discharge teaching guidelines.
I use this book everytime I create a care plan for nursing school. It has nearly every medical diagnosis you could have to develop goals, interventions, rationales, etc. It is mainly for adult med surg units, but can offer some assistant in children and adolescents.
A great book for the med-surg nurse or nursing student
