Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, part of Wolters Kluwer Health, has launched an innovative learning solution for nursing students, anchored with a comprehensive medical-surgical textbook and supported by interactive learning tools. The new textbook, Focus on Adult Health: Medical Surgical Nursing, is designed to prepare today's students to succeed as practicing nurses by focusing on the most important medical disorders and key nursing responsibilities. The book is supported by interactive learning tools including an adaptive quizzing programme and a simulated electronic health record (EHR).
The textbook prepares students for both the NCLEX exam and for daily nursing practice by focusing on the need-to-know content. The text includes 56 chapters, 46 of which have been written by a practicing clinician who distilled the content using their real world experience. Both the text and the supporting tools included features designed to reinforce the student understanding.
The textbook is sold with access to LWW's PrepU premium adaptive quizzing programme, which offers personalised quizzes, highlights student's strengths and weaknesses, and directs students to the text for further study. In addition, students have access to DocuCare, LWW's educational EHR software. DocuCare's content aligns with the textbook material and commonly used simulation models, creating a cohesive learning experience from classroom to simulation lab. DocuCare is linked to systems used in over 1200 hospitals nationwide providing a true-to-life student experience.
