Reinforce student understanding of medical-surgical nursing concepts and skills! With chapters corresponding to the chapters in Stromberg’s Medical-Surgical Nursing, 6th Edition, this study guide provides a variety of exercises to help your students master the role of the LPN/LVN. Review questions help students understand terms and apply concepts to patient care settings, and realistic activities provide practice with critical thinking and clinical judgment skills. Next Generation NCLEX-PN® (NGN)-style practice questions and case studies ensure that your students will be ready to pass the NGN exam.
    • Case studies help students practice and develop clinical judgment.
    • Application of the nursing process, critical thinking activities, and prioritization exercises challenge students to apply concepts from the text to real-life scenarios, in addition to developing clinical judgment.
    • Next-Generation NCLEX®–format questions allow students to review and practice for the licensure examination.
