Margaret A Fitzgerald: Nurse Practitioner Certification Exam Prep, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

"The scope of practice of the nurse practitioner (NP) is wide, encompassing the care of the young, the old, the sick, and the well. Nurse Practitioner Certification Exam Prep has been developed to help the NP develop the knowledge and skills to successfully enter NP practice and earn certification, an important landmark in professional achievement. This is not intended to be a comprehensive clinical text; rather, it is a source to reinforce learning and a guide for the development of the knowledge base and critical-thinking skills needed for entry-level NP practice. Indeed, this is the purpose of the NP boards, to ensure that those who enter NP practice will be safe practitioners. Each chapter has been rigorously edited to present questions that reflect the blueprint of knowledge required to successfully prepare for and pass the boards.
