Workbook for Respiratory Care Anatomy and Physiology, 3rd Edition
Paperback
As an adjunct to the text, this workbook helps reinforce essential respiratory care A&P concepts learned in the main text. Various learning activities encourage students to use recall, application, and analysis to develop the necessary critical thinking skills. Exercises include listing, matching, and labeling activities; critical thinking questions; case studies; and key concept questions that provide review and practice for the NBRC credentialing exam.
-
- Direct correlation with the 3rd edition of Respiratory Care Anatomy and Physiology makes it easy for students to parallel workbook activities with content from the main text.
