- Nurse Alerts highlight important information for patient safety and effective performance of the skill.
- Procedural Guidelines boxes provide streamlined, step-by-step instructions for performing very basic skills.
- New skills include Automatic External Defibrillator (AED), Restraint Free Environment, Aspiration Precautions, Fall Prevention in a Health Care Facility, and Seizure Precautions.
- Unexpected Outcomes and Related Interventions alert students to possible problems and appropriate nursing actions.
- Spiral binding allows the book to lay flat and stay open to selected pages.
- Streamlined skills conveniently list references at the end of each skill.
