Nursing Study Guide

Nursing Student Guide

For RN or LP Students

This Nursing Study Guide is intended to be just that, a study guide for nursing. The intended content is for students pursuing becoming Registered Nurses (RN) and Enrolled Nurses (also called Licensed Practical nurses). Limiting contributions to that perspective should make it simpler for students to apply what they read here.

This is intended to be a study guide, not an all-inclusive text. Chapters are grouped according to Gordons functional health patterns.
