Clinical Pocket Reference for Nurses Third Edition
“The Clinical Pocket Reference for Nurses is an excellent resource for both students and qualified nurses. The Third Edition includes updated content on cardiac monitoring and neurological assessment and references to the latest Resuscitation Council UK Guidelines. The book covers a wide range of essential information, including the requirements for patient assessment, such as the latest risk assessment tools, the Bristol stool chart, management of shock and sepsis, interpreting electrocardiograms and a guide to wound classification and healing. The book is easy to use and nurses should be able to quickly navigate to invaluable information. It is an educational tool that supports learning in practice and can also be used as a quick revision aid. The small spiral-bound format makes it accessible and ideal to keep in a pocket or diary when at work. The book would make a useful resource for nurses to buy for themselves, but could also be used as a quick reference guide to be shared on a ward. Although this book does have a nursing focus, it would also be relevant to other healthcare professionals, such as physiotherapists and paramedics.”- Nursing Standard

Clinical Pocket Reference Fundamental Care
“This pocket book is hailed as a rapid reference guide for nursing students at the start of their nursing programme, or others providing fundamental care to adult patients and families. Structured around McCormack and McCance’s book Person-Centred Nursing: Theory and Practice published in 2010, it draws from key sources, such as the 6Cs framework and the Nursing and Midwifery Council’s code of conduct. This pocket guide may be useful as an initial starting point, providing references for further reading ….. It could be a useful addition to a library, or might work more effectively in an interactive digital format or as an app.”- Nursing Standard
