Summary

Nursing Diagnosis Reference Manual, Sixth Edition helps nursing students and practicing nurses prepare care plans accurately and efficiently for every NANDA-approved nursing diagnosis. The book features a life-cycle format, with sections on adult, adolescent, child, maternal-neonatal, and geriatric health. Sections on community-based health (care plans on home health, health promotion, and more) and psychiatric/mental health round out the volume. Each care plan includes clear-cut criteria for identifying the right nursing diagnosis, assessment guidelines, outcome statements, rationales with all interventions, and documentation guidelines.
