By Nancy Haugen RN MN PhD, Sandra J. Galura MSN RN CCRN CPAN: Ulrich & Canale's Nursing Care Planning Guides: Prioritization, Delegation, and Critical Thinking Seventh (7th) Edition

Critical Thinking is the foundation of provision of optimal nursing care and of the Nursing Process. It is integral to development of goals and interventions, as well as incorporation of appropriate interdisciplinary team cooperation. Formulated to help both students who are trying to master care plan formulation and presentation, as well as professional nurses who must deal with issues of planning, patient care, and delegation - this book is a comprehensive guide and a wonderful tool for both the novice and the experienced nursing professional. As prioritization questions now represent a significant component of NCLEX-RN testing, this 7th edition text is a particularly valuable resource for NCLEX exam preparation.
