This book provides nurses with over 200 care plans that are designed to treat the most common ailments nurses encounter.

It even comes with an online companion. The seventh edition comes with 11 new conditions for which care plans are included, such as Fibromyalgia Solid Organ Transplant, and Cystic Fibrosis.

This is an interesting and thorough book explaining the anatomy and physiology of the human body, in a traditional sense, and which explains what the body is going through and doing when various illnesses occur.

Outlining the need for psychiatric support for caregivers routinely exposed to traumatic events, this beautifully touching and informative book uses real-life events from a nurse who worked as a psychiatric nurse for five years in a surgical and trauma ward.
by Sandy Summers
This is a current and very much needed account of how the unrealistic portrayal of nurses on TV shows, movies, and in the media, in general, can significantly impact how patients see nurses. She outlines how nurses are usually portrayed as pill-givers and supply-gatherers instead of actual medical professionals with a wealth of knowledge, and how this image of nurses, however unintentionally, can inhibit the trust patients have in their nurses. The book also outlines suggestions for improving...
by Betty J. Ackley and Gail B. Ladwig
Another great care planning book, this handbook is a resource every nurse should own and keep on hand for planning the treatments they will be carrying out for their patients. It covers a wide range of illnesses and situations in which careful planning is extremely crucial and walks the nurse through how to develop and carry out these plans. Instead of simply offering pre-written care plans, it helps nurses through the process of how to write their own care plans so that they are equipped to...
