A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture :

Nursing is the largest health occupation in the world and a nursing shortage is predicted. Understanding the reality of nursing, versus the portrayal of nurses on television and in the media, is vital to students' discovery of the exceptional opportunities nursing careers offer. Keys to Nursing Success is designed to promote a realistic understanding of nursing and to help students prepare for nursing school. An emphasis is placed on how to study the sciences and the importance of the liberal arts courses in building a strong beginning for lifelong learning.
