Understanding Anatomy and Physiology in Nursing
Covering all the key aspects of anatomy and physiology that nursing students need to know, this book condenses vast amounts of scientific information into short, concise, and easily accessible chapters. From an overview of cells, blood, and the major organ systems, through to the key developmental stages, genetics and ageing, this book introduces all the vital anatomy and physiology information that aspiring nurses will need to learn. Throughout the book, case studies link core principles of anatomy and physiology to realistic scenarios commonly encountered by nurses in clinical practice, helping students apply this knowledge to their everyday working life.
Key features
• Mapped to the new NMC standards of proficiency for registered nurses (2018)
• Case studies, activities and other learning features help students translate the theory to practice
• Provides revision guidance and strategies for tackling exams and assessments
A good first book for student nurses to familiarise themselves with A & P
Students encouraged to purchase this book to assist with their knowledge for anatomy and physiology both here and on future courses . Written clearly with good terminology ideal for the new student of A&P.
Decision on adoption of the title cannot be provided at this stage. Will consider later on in 2021
A very good text for the anatomy and physiology aspect of a number of nursing schemes. Whilst suitably comprehensive where it needs to be, this book is equally not overly daunting to digest. Presents all of the essentials of A&P in a very easy-to-understand way and contains exactly what you would hope of such a text.
This is an excellent book. Easy to understand and I like the case studies to consolidate learning.
Really usefully book which looks at A & P in a way which links to practice helping the students to understand the concepts and principles well. the use of case studies help the students to link to practice, and the table in the front helps students mappings to the NMC standards.
This book is pitched at the right level for the students that i teach and i really like the fact that it has been mapped to the NMC standards.
