DESCRIPTION
Prepare your students for safe, collaborative clinical practice. Focusing on
the most important nursing care plans for practice, this updated edition of
Carpenito’s practical resource helps students learn how to create nursing care
plans, effectively document care, and build clinical reasoning and decision-
making skills. To help achieve quality outcomes and prevent adverse events,
care plans identify individuals who are at high risk for falls, pressure ulcers, and infection and prepare the
individual/family for transition to home or another facility. A user-friendly organization splits Collaborative
Problems and Nursing Diagnosis in each chapter and organizes care plans by Medical Conditions, Surgical
Procedures, and Diagnostic and Therapeutic Procedures.
