- Geriatric Considerations are highlighted in special boxes to draw attention to the differences for elderly patients.
- Cultural Considerations boxes highlight helpful tips for interacting with people of various cultures.

- Chapter Summaries are bulleted to help you review important information.
- Key Terms are defined in the terminology section at the end of each chapter for easy review before exams.
