Typos, and poor photos presentation. More updated emergency care, & suturing information needed. If the photos were colored, the book would be more appealing .

This book is a must have for every entry level/new graduate FAMILY NURSE PRACTITIONER who is practicing in an emergency department, fast-track, or urgentcare. Dr. Campos and her colleague do a great job in illustrating and explaining common problems seen in these practice areas! A+ Thank you Dr. Campo!!!!

This book was very helpful in minor/basic procedures. Great for a student or a practitioner going into urgent care/ER. Step by step instructions with helpful pictures. I will definitely be keeping this book when I am done school.

The book is a verry good companion for the ER and the office. The only detail are the pics in black and white, it will be perfect with color pictures. The stuff is excellent and verry complete. I strongly recommend it.

There is adequate information on some of the procedures covered, but it seems to have a limited information and pictures on others.

Excellent book, easy to read. Great resource.

Great for NP school!

bought for school, an improvement would be to have color pictures
