Renowned for its holistic perspective and 'see and do' approach, this full-color, pocket-sized handbook offers step-by-step guidance on every phase of the nursing assessment - for adults, children, and special population. The focus is on what nurses need to know to assess clients: the health history, physical examination, normal and abnormal findings, nursing interventions, and nursing diagnoses.
This edition presents a complete update of all content and references, and contains new chapters on mental status and assessing frail elderly clients.
