Margaret Agard (Author, Illustrator)

 

NURSING ASSESSMENT IN THE CLINICAL SETTING – VOLUME 1 THE CIRCULATORY SYSTEM

This colorful book is the first ( Volume 1) in the series. It is put together by a Registered Nurse with decades of experience in Advanced Healthcare Facilities. This includes: PACU, ER, ICU, CCU, Maternity and more. This series of books on assessment of the body’s systems, is designed to help the new or experienced nurse become familiar with different clinical areas. No one can determine when an emergency situation may occur. The nurse who can challenge an environment that is unfamiliar and do it successfully, is a winner.

Volume 1 covers Assessment of the Circulatory System and The Basics of EKG reading. The illustrations are bold, humorous and colorful. Learning is easy and enjoyable.

It must be remembered that although the information provided is current, medical information is constantly changing. Always follow your Institution’s Policies and Procedures and MD orders.
