ONCC Review
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
I studied this book and the core oncology nursing book (green cover). Both were great, but this book was so good. I passed my OCN studying this book. I recommend using it from front to back, the back really has many very good helpful tips, websites, and overall this is an excellent book for any oncology nurse to have. I truly recommend it to novice oncology nurses.
