This book is pretty much saving my life these days. We're getting into the 'nursing process' and how all the steps of that fit together and how they look in the chart...couldn't live without this book!
frustrating
we recieved this book as part of our nursing corriculum and most of us hate it! it is very hard toi navigate and you end up wasting your time. Most of us have had to waste our money getting other books. I DO NOT reccoment!
Great Quality! Great Price!
I paid a really really good price for this book, i even thought it was too good to be true. I received the package about a week after purchasing and it was in very good condition. Thank You! Wish there were more sellers like you! A+++
I am disappointed!
Cox's Nursinging Diagnoses doesn't relate any of the Nanda Diagnoses to any specific disease processes. For the novice nurse, like myself, this makes this book very difficult to use. With only 2 semesters of experience under my belt I need the additional guidance which books like Gulanick/Myers Nursing Care Plans, and Ackley-Ludwig Nursing Diagnosis Handbook give me. In these books I can use my patients medical diagnosis to find suggestions on appropriate interventions for my careplan. For instance, I am assigned a patient that is one day post-op for having undergone a CABG, I can look up CABG and get a list of corresponding nursing diagnoses and prioritized interventions. Using the Cox book I would have to have alot more first hand knowledge of what to expect regarding the patients' response to undergoing a surgery like a CABG.
The Cox book can be useful as an adjunct to these other books. Once I know what Nursing Diagnoses I should focus on, I can then go to Cox and look at suggested interventions.
Summary: If you are only getting one care plan book, dont make it this one.
