This title offers a path to conquering the math skills essential for nursing success...and reducing the anxieties math often induces! Step by step, skill by skill...students progress from simple to complex calculations, building their proficiencies and testing it along the way. It's perfect for course review and quick reference. Each chapter begins with a pretest to determine the mastery level of the skills presented in that chapter. For each chapter, there are explanations with concrete examples, followed by practice problems. For every problem, step-by-step solutions help students see where their mistakes occurred and how to correct them. Four comprehensive tests assess mastery of basic math skills and math related to nursing-specific applications. A chapter test concludes each section. Test-taking tips help students learn how to apply their math knowledge better and reduce test-taking anxiety. A special color highlights the key terms in each skill section and explains how to work through problems. Bonus!
