Reviews


Nursing first year MUST
Going into my first year of nursing school I felt I needed every weapon available ... this "planner" is so much more. Very thorough with some chapters I never would have thought about regarding learning and life! Great reference book too. Spiral bound very well for "active" page turning.

The student nurse BIBLE!
I wish I had bought this for my junior year of nursing! What a jam packed book full of just everything important! Tons of space for planning out assignments, there's about 7 good sized lines per day, plus a monthly view as well. The monthly view has the standard small blank boxes, which will fit a few small lines or bullets, but the weekly view is great. There's info on drugs, drug admin, abbreviations, stuff on the nursing process, clinical info, geez just everything! I'm so happy I bought it. I'm going to place tabs throughout the book to make it easier to find certain areas, so I don't keep flipping through. Just a great book!

1st Semester Nursing Students
This book is great and I would have given it 5 stars, however I am an LVN. Therefore most of the key points in this book I really already know.... I would definitely recommend this book to someone who is 1st semester nursing students. I am currenly a transition student from LVN-RN therefore the book was like a really review....It probaly could have been maybe more indept about careplans more study tips...you can never ever recieve too many study tips...but yes I will use this planner...but if your an working LVN I would not really recommend this book for you...This book is only if your going to be in school to become and LVN/RN 1st semester students ONLY!!!! Then Yes highly worth buying.....

student nurse planner
This was a great purchase. It had a lot more info than I expected. It is also very nice to have easy access to the information. Much better than carrying textbook around all of the time. I only wish it would be a little cheaper and not quite so thick

its ok
i got mine for a month ago but since i have not started with my clinicals, i have no use for them, yet. But skimming through the pages i know that it will help me a lot as a student nurse. The information inside is very valuable.
