Fundamentals of Nursing

• UNIQUE! Building-block approach uses review questions and exam questions tied to learning objectives, starting at lower Bloom's taxonomy levels in the early chapters and building to more complex levels as you acquire more knowledge

• UNIQUE! Active learning activities help you apply chapter content to broader nursing concepts and realistic patient scenarios
• UNIQUE! Conceptual care mapping is used throughout the text in conjunction with the Conceptual Care Map creator to help you develop clinical judgment and plans of care
