Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - nursing careplans

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Good manual
For a pocket book of nursing diagnosis this book has several advantanges over other similar books (NANDA included) the defining characteristics are classified as Major (must be present) and Minor.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - EXTREMELY HANDY!!!
This is an easy to use, space saving, great purchase!! I can look up the same things as my classmates that have the regular Carpenito. Everyone that has seen my pocket Carpenito has wanted to know where I got it!
