Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great 'Beginner Book' for nursing students.
I was able to use this book at every care plan writing juncture for 3 different classes so far (Med-Surge I, Med Surg II, Therapeutic Use of Self, a little bit with Psych too). BUY IT FOLKS... trust me, you won't regret it. (Only reason I didnt give it all the stars is because I now feel that the book could be just a tad more detailed at times...but like I said, I still use it til this day)



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great for Nursing Students
I purchased this book when I started nursing shcool, and it has been nothing but helpful. This book is a must if you are a nursing student:)



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Wonderful!
So far this book has been wonderful!! With all the careplans that a nurse and nursing student have to write, it's made my life a little easier!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Best Care Plan Book
I bought this book for nursing school, after I bought the one our school had me buy. This one is so much better, to the point and really helps with care plans. It even has decent rationales. This book got me through nursing school with flying colors. Love it and highly recommended.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Hard to follow
This book isn't layed out that great. There's no index that helps find certain care plans. You have to flip through practically the whole book to find what you're looking for.

I had to go out and buy a different care plan book to help with my nursing care plans because this one wasn't very well organized in my opinion.
