Care by Susan Alvare, Diana Dugan and Jetta Fuzy. It’s not a bad book
however there are a few misprints and or mistakes in the information. It works
well for our population of students at the Penobscot Job Corps. Does not go
over too much home care nursing.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

morning.....i have been using an EXCELLENT textbook & workbook with my
adult ed CNA students. <i><span style='font-style:italic'>successful
nursing assistant care</span></i> 2nd edition by diana dugan. it is
published by hartman. it comes with a great cd...tests for each unit and
final exam, lesson plans, and skill checklists. the only downfall is that
it does not address acute care for some units. more geared toward long
term care of older adults. feel free to email me if you have further
questions.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
