Book Reviews of Mosby's Guide to Nursing Diagnosis, 2e

Book Review: Perfect pocket size book for clinicals and CARE PLANS
Summary: 5 Stars

This little book (2nd edition)is about the size of your hand and is perfect for the clinical settings and in doing your care plan. I take this book to clinicals with me to get a jump start on my care plans for the next day. It is MUCH better than taking this book:

http://www.amazon.com/Nursing-Diagnosis-Handbook-Evidence-Based-Planning/dp/0323071503/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1299984544&sr=1-1

to clinicals. This book is very easy to use. You simply go to Section One and look up your patients pathology. Under your pathology are each NANDA statement that is appropriate for that specific patho. Then you go to section two and look up each NANDA diagnosis. In that section you'll find your R/T statement and the defining characteristics. Only thing that this book is missing is your interventions you should perform.

Which is why I bought this gem:

http://www.amazon.com/Evidence-Based-Nursing-Care-Guidelines-Medical-Surgical/dp/032304624X/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1299984910&sr=1-1

which has a considerable amount of interventions I don't have to hunt down.

If you hate taking your clunky nursing diagnosis book with you, but want something portable to take and get alittle jump start on your care plan while at clinical this is the book for you.
