Summary:Critical Care Nursing is written for nursing students in a critical care rotation and for practicing nurses new to critical care. This innovative text provides coverage of the key content that critical care nurses need. Unique chapters on family involvement, organ donation, and palliative care make this a well-rounded resource for today's nurse. In addition, each clinical chapter contains applications of the AACN Synergy Model for Patient Care, which matches patient characteristics with nurse competencies, allowing readers to create a framework for their critical care practice. It features: case studies, critical thinking questions, evidence-based online resources, and student activities. The text is accompanied by a full companion Web site for students and faculty (http://nursing.jbpub.com/criticalcare) that includes crossword puzzles, an interactive glossary, anatomy review, quiz questions, Web links, and animated flashcards.
