- More than 150 NCLEX-style questions are included throughout the book, so students can test their knowledge and review those concepts they find difficult in each chapter.
- Material is presented using adult learning principles and various active-learning strategies to engage nursing students of all ages, backgrounds, and learning styles.
- A consistent chapter format using the headings â€• What it is, What you need to know, What you do, and Do you understand? â€• breaks down information into small units and reinforces an effective thinking process.
- Special icons for Lifespan Considerations, Cultural Implications, Web Links, Cautions, Monitoring and Initial Treatment help students quickly identify special content in the chapter.
- Memory-reinforcing mnemonic devices and a variety of interactive activities â€• including fill-in the blank, matching, word jumbles, true/false, and crossword puzzles â€• promote student learning. Answers are included at the bottom of the page.
- Prioritized content is reflected, identified, and reviewed by nursing students.
- Clinical terms and shorthand expressions are highlighted in parentheses and in a second color after the layperson's explanation to expose students to the terminology they will hear in the hospital setting.
- Boxed Take Home Points provide the benefit of years of nursing experience that students can use to prepare for their clinical rotation.
- A full-color insert illustrates concepts and principles of critical care and emergency nursing, including various complications.
- Original cartoon-character illustrations and a cartoon lioness walk students through difficult subjects with a lighthearted approach to engage students in learning.

Unique features includes a consistent use of standard headings, special icons for important information, boxed take home points, and a special cartoon character that walks the student through difficult content with a light-hearted approach.
