Product Description

This is a handy reference book in the award-winning "Incredibly Easy!" style - perfect for those entering or needing a refresher in critical care nursing. Critical care nursing is one of the most demanding and complex areas of nursing practice. The critical care nurse has to be "broadly specialized" with a fluency in a wide range of interconnected concepts, body system physiology, pathophysiology, and highly technical interventions, while processing data from multiple sources - all this in an environment where there is no room for error and seconds really do count.

Customer Reviews

Nice idea but a little disappointing.
Critical Care Nursing Made Incredibly Easy (CD- Rom), was a little disappointing. The information which is provided within the CD is presented in a quiz format, which is quite dull and tedious. There are three different types of quizzes, but they all follow the same format. The information regarding critical care nursing, provided by this CD-Rom is breif and limited, although the information is easy to understand. I don't feel that this CD-Rom is suitable for beginners within the critical care environment, as it does not provide enough information and only gives brief snap shot answers to questions. Even as a reasonably expreinced critical care nurse myself, I found the CD-Rom repetitious and unstimulating.

Very useful teaching aid!
I have found this CD a novel way to teach student nurses! It's fun and colourful, the learning material is at the right level for the Critical Care nurse. It is however written for the American market as the names of drugs are different. But despite this, it is an enjoyable way to learn! When I received my CD I was four hours playing with it!
