Nursing Health Assessment: A Best Practice Approach reflects a progressive and modern view of nursing practice, featuring innovative elements that facilitate understanding of how best to obtain accurate data from patients. It includes thorough and comprehensive examinations for each specific topic, and also presents strategies for adapting questions and techniques when communication is challenging, the patient's responses are unexpected, or the patient's condition changes over time. Unique features assist with application and analysis, enhancing critical thinking skills and better preparing readers for practice.

Each chapter includes a case study that requires critical thinking and diagnostic reasoning to analyze data, document, plan care, and communicate findings. Additional features, ancillary material, and media related to the book build on the in-text cases to reinforce correct elements of subjective and objective data collection and variations necessary for different problems, age groups, and cultures.

Nursing Health Assessment PDF

I had to buy this book for my BSN program. As a working RN, this text is pedestrian and a total waste of money and paper. Numerous glaring errors - not acceptable. I would not even sell this book after the semester to recoup the money I paid for it. I would not participate in Nursing misinformation.

If you are an administrator at a Nursing School considering this text, think about how foolish you will look if you require a text rife with errors... it reflects VERY poorly on your Nursing practice and Nursing in general. If such a poor text is selected, there can only be one reason and how does that speak to your professional integrity?

If you are a student, with this required text, contact me and I will ship my copy to you free of charge. I don't think the publisher should make a cent on this. The author, editor, contributors and proofreaders should be embarrassed.

The text attempts to organize itself...but it's not done in a manner that has helped me retain any of the information. I'm not sure how other health assessments books are, but this one opens with a decent amount of anatomy, which is of course useful, but I wish it also had a LITTLE BIT of physiology to explain WHY the abnormal findings are abnormal. It feels like the physical assessment, which to me is what should make this text worthwhile, is thrown in the middle and poorly explained. I don't hate this text, but it doesn't get me excited about health assessment.
