[Medical Surgical Nursing, 4 E By Priscilla LeMone And Karen Burke
Everardo Laboy
hi, i'm not exactly new here but i've not really posted or joined discussions yet. anyway, i have a question--what's the best med-surg text to use, and why? i've not bought one for myself bec here in the philippines, nursing books are always out of stock and i don't want to grab just any med-surg that's avail. sometimes i buy thru amazon. hope to hear from someone! :)
You may get some more ideas by searching med surg texts on Amazon and looking at the reviews. I always look for books that have a number of good reviews (one review doesn't necessarily mean it's a great book even if it's 5 stars).
we use medical-surgical nursing: critical thinking in client care by priscilla lemone & karen burke. another good supplement is medical-surgical nursing reviews & rationales by mary ann hogan & tomas madayag
Here at the College of the Bahamas we use "Brunner and Suddarth's Textbook of Medical-Surgical Nursing" by Suzanne C. Smeltzer and Brenda G. Bare. The text seems to be very straght forward and it also comes with a companion study guide by Mary Jo Boyer. The book's publisher is "Lippincott"
I have Medical Surgical Nursing by Lewis. Don't buy it!!! It's awful. I really wish our school didn't require it. I use supplemental texts because after reading in Lewis, you are more confused than when you started.
