Leveraging research, evidence-based best practices, clinical scenarios, and contemporary and emerging healthcare trends, Craven & Hirnle’s Fundamentals of Nursing: Concepts and Competencies for Practice, 10th Edition, provides an unparalleled first step in students’ nursing education and establishes the strong foundation essential to their success in today’s nursing practice. This updated edition supports confident clinical decision-making and improved patient safety and outcomes, helping students develop the strong critical thinking and clinical judgment, clear communication, and sound clinical skills they will use every day to support and restore patients to functionality and wellness across a multitude of settings.
Bridging the continuum from nursing education to clinical practice, this respected text instills a mastery of basic concepts—promoting health, differentiating between normal function and dysfunction, using scientific rationales, and applying clinical judgment through the nursing process—and a familiarity with today’s clinical challenges reflecting a range of patient populations, practice settings, and clinical situations. Updates throughout the 10th Edition streamline the transition from the classroom to clinical practice, informed by the Next Generation NCLEX®, the Clinical Judgment Measurement Model (CJMM), and the latest diversity, equity, and inclusion considerations. Exercises woven into each chapter reinforce students’ mastery of key skills and provide critical practice applying knowledge to contemporary care. -
