Synopsis

Now part of the popular LPN Threads series, this popular textbook helps students develop the practical knowledge and problem-solving skills they need for a successful career as an LPN/LVN. It uses an engaging "1-2-3 approach" that describes what needs to be done in a situation as well as how to do it. Questions, quizzes, and self-assessments encourage active participation and critical thinking, while serving as practical and efficient aids to learning. Coverage of leadership and management has been substantially increased in this edition.

About this title

Review:

"There is much to recommend in this book, with its focus on leadership and career development. My first year has shown how quickly daily demands of nursing can distract from long-term career goals. The book gives clear pointers to keep focused on your career and moving from student to leader." Nursing Standard, April 29 2009
