5.0 out of 5 stars clinical practice guidelines for end of life care
Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2002
This is an excellent book and is a valuable addition to the libary of both RN's and APRN's working in hospice and palliative care. It provides both a general overview and specific guidelines for end stage disease process and symptom management. It would be a useful resource for anyone studying for the CHPN exam, in addition to a good working reference book to asssist in the managment of patients and their symptoms.
