Clinical Judgment
STUDENT RESOURCES The questions and exercises in this book allow you to practice the kind of thinking you will use as a full-spectrum nurse. Critical-thinking questions usually have more than one right answer, so we do not provide “correct” answers for these features. Try to answer these questions yourself.
