Second semester I got a little smarter and decided to look for a good book that will help in developing a nursing diagnosis, as well as everything else (goals, interventions, etc.), I got this book because I really needed something to help me out.

I had two care plan books that were not working for me so I spent about 8 hours one weekend in Barnes and Nobles looking through every single book that had on the subject. When I got to this one, I didn't need to look any further. ... Read More
