check_circle Spiral Bound With Tab Dividers Included

I was an ICU nurse for six years and still walked into my first clinical rotation feeling like I knew nothing, because carrying out orders and writing them are completely different jobs. This is the only thing I have found that is written for that gap. I read the relevant section on my drive in and I stopped freezing when my preceptor asked what I would do.

How it Works

The Essential Family Nurse Practitioner Guide by MedPrep Nursing is a spiral bound reference built for the jump from RN to NP, when you stop carrying out orders and start deciding them. Each condition is laid out the way you actually need it in the room: pathophysiology, presentation, diagnostics, treatment, red flags, and when to refer. Add the included tab dividers when it arrives and you can jump straight to Cardiovascular, Pharmacology or Dermatology in seconds, whether you are revising for boards, prepping for a clinical day or checking something between patients. It is written to be used in practice, not just read before an exam.

What Our Customers Saying....

    FAQs

    When in my program should I get this?

    Most people buy it right before clinicals start, which is when the gap between knowing nursing and thinking like a provider becomes obvious. It works just as well from day one of your program, and plenty of NPs keep using it years into practice.

    Is this a board review book or a clinical reference?

    Both, which is the point. The content is organised the way you think in a room, so the same page that helps you study for boards is the page you check before you walk in to see a patient.

    Does it cover pregnant and pediatric patients?

    Yes, and this is where most references fall short. There is a full pregnancy section covering trimester visits, safe and unsafe medications, prenatal testing and postpartum complications, plus peds and geriatric considerations built into topics throughout.

    How is the pharmacology laid out?

    By drug class, in tables you can scan. Examples, mechanism of action, common uses, monitoring and labs, and cautions and red flags all sit in one row, so you are not hunting through paragraphs to find the one thing you need.

    Will it survive being carried every day?

    The spiral binding lies completely flat and folds back on itself, which is what you want when you are reading one handed between patients. Add the included tab dividers and you will find any section without flipping through the whole book.

    What if I don't like The Essential Family Nurse Practitioner Guide?

    Try it for 30 days, and if you are not happy for any reason we will refund you in full under our 30 day money back guarantee. Your purchase is completely risk free.

    From Carrying Orders To Writing Them

    Years as an RN do not prepare you for the moment someone asks what you would prescribe. This is written for exactly that gap, so you walk into clinicals with an answer instead of a blank.

    Know When To Refer

    The scariest part of practising independently is not knowing what you might be missing. Every topic includes its red flags and referral criteria, so the line between manage it and send them out is written down instead of guessed at.

    • It Goes To Every Clinical Day

      Lives in my bag next to my stethoscope at this point.

    • The Pharm Section Is Worth It Alone

      Thirty plus pages laid out by drug class in tables you can actually scan. I stopped trying to memorise my pharm textbook and just used this instead.

    • Finally A Real Pregnancy Section

      Every other FNP resource skims pregnancy in two pages. This has trimester visits, safe meds, prenatal testing and postpartum, which is exactly what I kept getting caught out on.

    • Tabs Made All The Difference

      Stuck them in the first night. Now I can get to any section in about two seconds between patients.

    • Stopped Feeling Like A Fraud In Clinicals

      I had eight years as a floor nurse and still felt completely lost the first month, because nobody tells you how different it is to be the one deciding. Reading the relevant section before each clinical day changed how I showed up. My preceptor commented on it within two weeks.

    • Still Using It A Year Into Practice

      Bought it for school and assumed I would shelve it after boards. It is still on my desk and I check the red flags sections more often than I would admit.
