We have used 'Fast Facts' for two years and are extremely pleased with
it. Our students carry it in their pockets from freshmen through senior
level and find it very useful. -- Pamela Cone, RN, MSN, CNS, Azusa Pacific University School of Nursing, Azusa, California
Fast
Facts is just that, an easy to use reference for clinical decisions and
behaviors. This book is written for students and practitioners at
several levels of expertise. Most attractive features of the book are
the attention to all the likely elements of nursing practice in
institutions, with some also relevant to community nursing. I am a
chart/table type of reference seeker and this book has many well ordered
fact arrangements to keep me content. Faith H. Howarth, MSN, EdM, Johns Hopkins University School of Nursing, Baltimore Maryland
