Customer Rating:      Summary: re: clinical handbook Comment: no wonder the item was soo cheap, it was an earlier edition; the image or picture they posted was of the latest edition. the item was in good condition, though, and it came quickly. just hoped the seller gave a more accurate description.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Outstanding Clinical Handbood Comment: After attending one of Ms. Mimms courses, I bought this book. It is explicitly detailed and offers the critical care nurse a sound base of knowledge. I have implemented several of the chapters into our competency program and refer to it regularly. Thanks to Barbara, we have a reference guide soley for the purpose of teaching new critical care nurses.
