Main description:

This must-have Study Guide will help you understand and apply material from every chapter of Adult Health Nursing, 6th Edition! Use this study guide together with the textbook to gain a solid understanding of the key principles, concepts, and skills you need to succeed in your nursing education and career, while also preparing for the NCLEX examination.

Learning activities help you meet content objectives, and include crossword puzzles, labeling, matching, completion, identification, NCLEX exam-style multiple-choice review questions, and critical thinking questions.
Page references are included for all activities except for the critical thinking questions, to facilitate your review.

NEW! An increased emphasis on NCLEX review prepares you more effectively for the NCLEX-PN examination, with more NCLEX-style alternate-format type questions and more critical thinking activities.
