  • Selected as a Doody's Core Title for 2022!

    The Twelfth Edition of Timby’s Fundamental Nursing Skills and Concepts continues the tradition of excellent coverage of basic nursing theory and clinical skills that have long made this text a leading resource for LPN/LVN students at the beginning of their program, as well as a comprehensive reference for updating the skills of currently employed nurses or those returning to work after a period of inactive practice.
     
    Students using this text will learn theoretical nursing concepts, step-by-step skills and procedures, and clinical applications, all while applying philosophical concepts focusing on the human experience, such as caring as the essence of nursing, supportive health care provider networks, and accountability for actions and clinical decisions. Engaging learning tools promote critical thinking, and visually enticing photos and illustrations bring the information to life to reinforce learning.
     
    Updated to help students meet the needs of today’s changing healthcare environment, this new edition reflects the most current medical and nursing practices, including up-to-date gerontologic, pharmacologic, and nutritional considerations and the latest NANDA diagnoses and terminology
