Innovative textbook of health assessment for nursing students. An alternative to books that present health assessment as a collection of techniques with no integrated focus, "Nursing Health Assessment" engages students in the assessment process through three important retention-developing features: Body Systems Integration; Case Studies, and Critical Thinking. Features two new chapters, more step-by-step photos and descriptions of assessment techniques to aid the visual learner, and new case studies.
