THE TEXTBOOK
A comprehensive approach to care promotes critical thinking and clinical judgment to teach students how to “Think Like a Nurse” from the very first day. A consistent and concise organization along with a wealth of pedagogical features emphasizes the Thinking, Doing, and Caring at the heart of professional practice.
In every chapter, students first explore the theoretical knowledge behind key Fundamentals concepts. Then, they learn the practical knowledge guided by the nursing process; and finally, the skills and procedures for safe and effective nursing care.

Whether teaching in-person or online, this complete, integrated solution aligns seamlessly with the textbook and equips instructors with actionable analytics to track students’ progress, remediate where needed, and facilitate an active learning environment.
LEARN―Personalized Learning
The foundation of the Davis Advantage platform, Personalized Learning, immerses students in an online learning experience tailored to their needs. Students are assessed on their comprehension of key topics from the text, and then are guided through animated mini-lecture videos and dynamic activities to reinforce learning and bring concepts to life.
