Thorough reference book
“I could have googled a lot of the terms instead of buying this, but I really like having a physical copy of reference materials. This book has done a good job of defining medical terms. It is better than Google because you don’t pull up 14 different things with similar names-ONLY the medical definition.”
-R. M. Cook
Great resource for nursing students!
“The Bible for Nurses creating care plans! Has everything you will need; disease definition, symptoms, NANDA’s, interventions. A must-have for students!”
-Dora Duran
Required textbook for first-year nursing school, but it will serve me well for many years
“My favorite aspect is that it came with a 1-year subscription to Taber’s Online.”
-PD Smith
