We have included Learning Activities, which provide
a variety of approaches to facilitate learning. The
exercises include activities such as matching terms,
listing important signs and symptoms, describing medical
therapy and nursing measures and their rationales, and
labeling illustrations.
Check Yourself questions give you an opportunity to
answer multiple-choice items that are similar to those you
may encounter on a test at school or on the NCLEX®
exam. The questions are a mixture of factual items and
higher level questions that require application of that
factual knowledge.
Nursing requires more than textbook knowledge,
however. Our Developing Insight feature guides you to
expand your knowledge as you have your clinical
experiences.
These activities give you specific directions for
comparing and using information that you study in class
and in your textbook.
Case Studies give you a chance to “try out” your
nursing care with a simulated client. The case studies
encourage you to use critical thinking to interpret
information given in the situation and select appropriate
nursing actions. The case studies can be used by an
individual or in a small group. If used in a small group,
each member can benefit from the thinking skills of others
in the group as they choose and defend their nursing care.
In addition, you may often incorporate items such as
facility protocols in the simulated client care.
As appropriate to the exercise, we have written the
answers at the end of each chapter in the Study Guide. In
