Master the role and responsibilities of the PN in Canadian medical-surgical nursing! The only Canadian medical-surgical nursing text designed for the Practical Nurse student, Linton and Matteson's Medical-Surgical Practical Nursing in Canada provides a solid foundation in the fundamentals of nursing, including roles, settings, and issues and trends in health care. Content includes descriptions of pathology, medical conditions organized by body system, emergency and disaster management, pandemic preparedness, and mental health nursing. Unique to this text is a unit focusing on the older adult — a key patient population that PNs see in practice. Edited by Katherine Poser, an experienced educator and critical care nurse, this text helps you prepare for the REx-PN® or CPNRE® licensure examinations and succeed as a new nurse.
