Cox's clinical applications of nursing diagnosis : adult, child, women's, mental health, gerontic, and home health considerations (5th ed.)

With the retirement of Helen Cox (author of four previous editions), the baton has been passed to Susan Newfield.

Susan and her team remain loyal to the previous books by focusing on the "nursing model" over the "medical model." This edition carries on the great features of the previous while updating and improving the content. "The Gordon's Functional Health Patterns" organizes the framework, helping students learn and apply a holistic approach in planning care.
