Nutrition Essentials for Nursing Practice , Seventh Edition, is a practical book that nursing students can use throughout their education and into practice. It can also be used by students in non-nursing diet and nutrition programs. Acclaimed for the way it demonstrates the importance of nutrition to all aspects of nursing practice, including care plans, patient teaching, and evaluation, the book emphasizes what nurses really need to know about nutrition.

The Seventh Edition reflects the latest evidence-based practice and nutrition recommendations, while maintaining its nursing process focus and emphasis on patient teaching. Throughout the text, the author includes features that help students integrate nutrition into nursing care, including Nursing Process tables, case studies in every chapter and NEW to this edition, 24 Disease Oriented Interactive Case Studies. Accessible online, each interactive case study concludes with ten NCLEX-styletest questions and five open-ended critical thinking questions.

For the first time, Nutrition Essentials for Nursing Practice is supported by PrepU, a truly personalized study experience that allows students to drill, drill, drill in an engaging online environment .
