Description
Master key concepts and apply them to your nursing practice! Corresponding to the chapters in Introduction to Maternity & Pediatric Nursing, 6th Edition, by Gloria Leifer, RN, MA, CNE, this study guide reinforces your understanding of essential concepts and skills. It offers the preparation you need to pass the NCLEX? Examination and succeed in your nursing career.
NCLEX exam-style multiple-choice review questions at the end of each chapter test basic chapter knowledge as well as ask for appropriate nursing actions, what the nurse should expect in terms of medical care of the patient, and what complications the patient is at risk of developing.
Case Studies and Applying Knowledge activities provide additional opportunities to apply learned information to clinical care.
Thinking Critically activities require you to apply what you've learned in the textbook to new situations and draw conclusions based on that knowledge.
Learning activities include matching, labeling, and completion exercises to help you learn basic concepts of maternity and pediatric nursing.
Crossword puzzles in selected chapters are a nice way to change up the format when testing comprehension of terms and concepts.
Answer key is located on the student's Evolve website.
Several Thinking Critically sections and case studies with critical thinking questions have been added.
Alternate-item format questions are included in the review questions for the NCLEX? Examination.
