F. A. Davis recognizes a need for and the importance of health assessment products that focus on critical thinking. Nursing Health Assessment is a collection of five products that can be used independently or together. The "mix and match" possibilities of the basic text's ancillaries provide educators with the combination that best suits their needs. Each component offers an alternative to the textbooks that approach health assessment as a collection of techniques with their nonintegrated, individual focus on body systems. The Nursing Health Assessment suite uses case studies, supported by technique, to encourage critical thinking while considering cause and effect issues on the other systems and on the whole person.

This is the core health assessment text that pulls it all together for your students! This case-study based text uses an integrated approach to the assessment and documentation of the normal adult's physical, mental, spiritual, psychosocial, cultural, and environmental health status in a variety of settings. The major themes incorporated throughout the text are health promotion, wellness, and collaboration.
