Learn to make sound clinical nursing judgments through a concept-based, case study approach with Harding and Snyder’s Clinical Reasoning Cases in Nursing, 8th Edition. Recognized with second place in the 2019 AJN Book of the Year Awards in the Medical-Surgical category, this trusted resource is valued for its realistic, clinically relevant, and thought-provoking case studies.
The book includes approximately 150 true-to-life case studies across four major clinical areas: medical-surgical, pediatric, OB/maternity, and psychiatric–mental health nursing. The organization supports a conceptual approach to teaching and learning, helping you build stronger clinical reasoning and decision-making skills. Each case reflects common patient problems drawn from actual clinical experiences and is written by expert nurses. Interprofessional collaboration competencies are emphasized throughout.
Integrated content on pharmacology, nutrition, diagnostics, and laboratory testing encourages critical thinking about every dimension of patient care. The 8th edition has been comprehensively updated to align with current standards of practice, including preparation for clinical readiness in the COVID-19 era. Concepts and terminology aligned with the Next Generation NCLEX (NGN) are introduced in the Preface and woven throughout the text to support your preparation for the evolving licensure exam.
