Synopses & Reviews
Educators, students and nurses will love this portable, quick, and indispensable scrub-pocket-sized tool. Focusing on clinical need-to-know information--how to calculate common medication formulas, signs of child abuse, the normal range of vital signs--rather than simply the nice-to-know, LPN Notes combines commonly used, but rarely memorized, clinical information with reusable patient assessment tools and worksheets. And it does it all in a colorful, waterproof, and reusable format. (Ballpoint ink wipes off with alcohol.) Students can refer to LPN Notes time and again for the delivery of safe, efficient, and effective nursing care.
