Summary: "This text provides the reader with evidence-informed content about the care of acutely ill patients and their families. Written by nursing experts, this book sets a standard for progressive care nursing education, supports preparation for national certifications, and can be a resource to address uncertainty in patient care delivery. The organization of the text recognizes the learner's need to assimilate foundational knowledge before attempting to master more complex progressive care nursing concepts. In addition, the American Association of Critical-Care Nurses affirms this book's value to the AACN community and especially to clinicians at the point of care. As progressive care continues to evolve, the skills and knowledge that nurses leverage will also change. The constant element will be nurses' profound commitment to learning and translating that learning to optimal patient outcomes. This 5th edition, like its predecessors, meets nurses in their journey to learn, supports their pursuit of validation through certification, and offers a resource for direct patient care"-- Provided by publisher.
