Summary: Helpful Handbook
Comment: The only reason this book is a four star and not a five is that you do have to learn to use it. It is especially beneficial when dealing with collaborative problems. The larger book was helpful in understanding the whole process of nursing diagnosis and what it is meant to convey; the handbook will suffice for most nursing care plans, rationale tends to be a student pre-occupation. The organization is alphabetic, very clear for me once you know the few nursing diagnoses that are NANDA approved. Carpenito gives clear assessment data that must be present to support the diagnosis and interventions that make sense to select from as appropriate to your patient. I have used the book since the 7th edition and own the eighth and ninth. The tenth is available and I look forward to seeing the changes.

Summary: Waste of money
Comment: The only GOOD thing about this is that its small. Its totally confusing to follow AND there isnt any rationals. Make sure you get something with rationals. Makes charting easier

Summary: This tradition stinks...
Comment: I love being a nursing student. I hate that OSU requires Carpenito as a nursing diagnosis reference for every nursing student to pass through its doors. I find nursing diagnoses a pain anyway, but Carpenito seems to go out of her way to make an already difficult process even worse. Talk to your instructors; tell them that there are other references out there!
