2 BOOKS IN 1!
  1. Practical diagnoses to create a care plan
  2. Up-to-date coverage of the latest psychotropic medications

This quick reference pocket guide is two books in one! The first half provides the diagnostic information needed to create a care plan; the second half covers the safe prescription and administration of psychotropic medications. It's the most complete and easy-to-use resource on how to develop practical, individualized plans of care for psychiatric-mental health patients...perfect for clinical rotations now and for practicing nurses later. Concepts can be applied in a variety of healthcare settings...from in-patient hospitalization through the outpatient clinic...to home health and private practice.
