The CNA class Im taking wanted me to get the 8th edition but after the 1st day of class. I noticed all the homework was based on the 7thy edition so I bought this book and saved alot of money. The older editions work just the same as the newer some times, so just look into it before buying.
This is a very inclusive book for anyone going into the Nursing Assistant field. The book includes numerous charts and tables that are very easy to understand, very well organized, and great reference tools. I would strongly recommend it to anyone going into the field.
Very comprehensive, packed full of information for the CNA student, and a permanent reference for the experienced CNA. This book goes far above and beyond the data that is required for a CNA candidate to pass the State Exam. Much of the data will be useful to those CNAs who advance to LPN/RN licenses. 50 chapters full of information. This is a very good textbook to own and keep on hand for healthcare professionals who want to keep their skills sharp. Easy to read. Worth keeping in your permanent library. Some CNA schools loan you this textbook during their course. I was so impressed with the information in this book that I bought my own copy to keep.
this book has lots of details, easy to understand and are not boring at all. Well, some of the stuff, my instructor said that the book was wrong, but I'm not so sure about that. Overall, it is a pretty good book to buy, i skim it over couple days before my CNA test and passed the first time! :)
I was sent the Workbook and Competency Evaluation Review, instead of the "Textbook" that I had ordered. I had given the ISBN#978-0-323-04994-8 expecting the text book to take my class with, the book I was sent is ISBN# 978-0-323-05250-4.The book I was sent was true in the condition that was stated but the paper packing it was sent in had to be taped together before being delivered to my home as it was falling off.
Great graphics, easy to read and understand. Student DVDs were adequate but needed greater detail for vital signs, especially B/P.
It fulfills the requirements for the class. No great knowledge builders. It drives me a little crazy all the threatening law suit material in it. Not the book's fault, just a reminder of our crazy, suit-happy society!
this textbook really helps me accomplished my CNA/certified nursing assistant. it comes with a CD which helps you understand vividly the content of the textbook.
