This book bridges the gap left by others Annabel Coulson, Practice Education Facilitator, University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust 10/10 Covers all topics and skills required by a 3rd year student nurse yet can also be used by a qualified nurse. Clear, concise and easy to relate to the working environment.

With excellent realism in the scenarios and something for every branch of nursing, it's a shame it wasn't published before I qualified! Sarah Bowyer, newly qualified nurse, Birmingham City University
