• Procedural Guidelines boxes provide streamlined, step-by-step instructions for performing very basic skills.

• New skills include Automatic External Defibrillator (AED), Restraint Free Environment, Aspiration Precautions, Fall Prevention in a Health Care Facility, and Seizure Precautions.
• Unexpected Outcomes and Related Interventions alert students to possible problems and appropriate nursing actions.
• Spiral binding allows the book to lay flat and stay open to selected pages.
