I am looking for a good text or website to reference to on creating case studies in acute care or family nursing. Anyone have any suggestions on where to look?

I had to do a case study presentation recently. We were suppose to use a real life case from clinical but lucky me had to do mine the 2nd week of the semester and i did not have many clinical days yet.
I had a broad topic and had to make up my own case study. I looked through text books and googled sites and could not find ideas. What i ended up doing was using my school's library website and searched for journal articles and case studies that related to my topic. I used the cases from the articles as base and created my own and to tailored it to my topic and what my assignment entailed and just referenced those articles. Hope this helps.

Hey, I saw that you were in the UTHSC dual program for FNP and Acute care. I have recently been accepted into the same program for the fall. I was wondering if there were any words of wisdom you might have regarding school and what the book list is so I can be proactive in getting them early. Also, I saw that you live in AR and get instate tuition for Tennessee. Who did you speak to in order to get that?
Thanks!
