This extensively-illustrated, pocket sized handbook offers both students and clinicians an easy-to-use reference to the clinical procedures that nurses need to perform daily in every care setting, including critically important client teaching procedures not covered in other books. Each procedure is organized by the steps of the nursing process to help students apply classroom learning to the clinical setting. A "Special Considerations" section in each procedure details the special needs of pediatric, geriatric, obstetrical and home health clients.
