Great reference book

This book really helped me prepare for a first semester nursing class that required writing a care plan and teaching plan in the final. The book has most of the more commonly seen diseases, but loses a star because it lacks anything too exotic. Overall, a great primer for developing teaching plans and extermely helpful with the basics.
