Review: Amazing Book For Writing Care Plans - I am currently in my second to last semester of nursing school and this book has saved my life. My program made me buy the Ackley book but this book is worlds better! It clearly gives you related to factors that fit the NANDA nursing diagnosis, as well as specific interventions when writing smart goals. It will give you plenty of action, assess and teach interventions to make your smart goals a breeze. Buy this book. With the Ackely book my care plans took roughly 10 hours to complete. With this book I'm down to 6 hours. It's worth the money. Review: If you're in nursing school, you NEED this book - I didn't find this book until my last semester of nursing school and I desperately wish I'd had it from day one. Not only does this help you learn to develop the big picture of any nursing diagnosis, but seeing the interventions and assessments helps you remember it for future use! The rationales were insanely helpful and included evidence-based information as well.
