Customer Reviews

invaluable resource for nurse practioners
excellent updated version of this very handy but essential reference book for nurses and registras working in primary care.The previous edition saw me through my first year working as aTriage sister in a gp practice.Basically everything you may need to work in this rapidly changing field .

Fantastic first line reference
I have just commenced a Nurse Practitioner degree and needed a book to give me the basic on minor illnesses presenting in Primary Care. This book is it. If you have a small budget, this is definitely one to get!

a good, clearly written and eay to follow book
this book gives very clear protocols for nurses undertaking the increasingly common role of minor illness clinics within General Practice. The protocols and recommended medical treatment may not be the same as may be recommended by some doctors but it gives a good basis from which to work, to evolve protocols for such clinics. Differential diagnoses are explored which may alert the nurse to a potentially less minor condition. This book is a must for nurses in this role.
