Virtual Clinical Excursions 2.0 to Accompany Hockenberry: Wong's Essentials of Pediatric Nursing

Book Description: This groundbreaking workbook/CD-ROM package brings learning to life in a "virtual" hospital setting. Each lesson has a textbook reading assignment with corresponding CD-ROM and workbook activities. The workbook acts as a map, guiding students through the CD-ROM as they care for patients in the virtual hospital to help students make connections between what they experience through the CD-ROM and what they've learned in their textbook. Each virtual hospital visit allows the student to access realistic information resources essential to patient care. The result is a true-to-life, hands-on learning experience. * Meaningful, real-world problems place users in nursing scenarios where they can set priorities for care, collect data, analyze and interpret data, and reach conclusions about complex problems within a health-illness transition * The highly-engaging format encourages active learning and provides opportunities to identify information to collect and process data for evidence-based patient care; work with data entry and retrieval screens; optimize use of available information resources; understand hospital information systems; manage information for decision-making; and maintain and improve core computing skills * Lessons in the workbook complement the content in the textbook and guide the student through the multi-floor virtual hospital * The CD-ROM offers users the opportunity to visit each patient and access realistic information essential for patient care, including: charts, medical administration records, & electronic patient records
