case study

Hopeful2011 · Apr 12, 2010

There's a book called "Critical Thinking Cases in Nursing" 4th edition.. by Barbara Preusser. You could sit at Barnes and Noble or Books a Million or wherever you find the book and do four case studies out of there...

Moved to the student discussion forum

Have a look at the stickies (they have a pin at the side of the title and always found near the top of the forum) and you will see a couple on care plans

hi i'm studying 2nd year in nursing.in this year i have to submit 4 case study but i dont know the correct format of case study and i dont know how to select a case for case study:crying2:.and please suggest any websites which helpful for studies...

If you are to submit 4 case studies and do not know the correct format, you may want to go to your course's syllibus. If the school follows other NS, the syllibus should outline what is an acceptable case study, the format, if it is to be in APA format, how long it is to be, the physical formatting of the paper, and other information that is helpful to the student. Should your professor fail to give you this information, you need to contact that professor and ask for specifics. After all, what kind of case study is acceptable---the professor may require one different case study from a list of problems. I had a long list of problems and that helped me pick my clinical patiennts.

Sometimes a professors will provide their students with a guideline copy of what the case study is to look like, or an old case study from an A student--to see how what is included in the case study.

Without definitive information from your professor, you will be at a loss to what subject you will do your case study on, what to include, the format it is to be in, and how long the paper must be. Best to you :redbeathe
