Potter and Perry's Canadian Fundamentals of Nursing, the market-leading fundamentals text, presents the principles, concepts, and skills every nurse needs for success in nursing school and in practice. You can trust this text to provide your students with a rock-solid foundation for future success with its comprehensive coverage, nursing process framework, critical thinking emphasis, and focus on care in all settings. The consistent and logical organization and clear writing style make it a favorite of students and faculty alike.


The third Canadian edition addresses a number of key practice issues, including the increased focus on evidence-based practice, safety concerns, and end-of-life care. To better meet the needs of beginning students, a section on prioritizing has been added to the planning sections, and care plans have been expanded to more clearly explain assessment findings leading to nursing diagnoses, as well as evaluation of outcomes. All 45 chapters have been adapted to reflect nursing practice in Canada.

1.0 out of 5 stars I LOATHE this book Jan 29 2010
Format:Hardcover
This is my second term with this text and I find it extremely frustrating. I have a literature degree under my belt, and yet I have never experienced a text so convoluted and obfuscatory.

The latest example: "Challenges to Health Care System" is the heading. Then a list of supposed challenges. But do they talk specifically about how each is a challenge to the system? No, just some vague blathering, no clear, concise connections to the original concept. After reading it, if I had to explain how each category affects the health care system, I couldn't do it.

I've never seen such a huge collection of words amount to such little usable information. It makes me want to throw it at the wall, but it would take down the wall. No wonder we need so many supplementary articles in class!
