Emergency Assessment Links?

Published

Does anyone have any good links to emergency nursing assessment resources? I have Sheehy's Emergency Nursing Principles and Practice, I have a great general textbook for pathophys/common illnesses, and I have my general Health Assessment textbook. I'm hoping to find something that brings it all together a little more for me. Bonus if it's focused for peds as I work in a dedicated pediatric ED.

I'm going to BUMP this because I want some info on Emergency Nursing, too.

OP, how are you finding the Sheehy text?

I haven't really delved in yet but my initial impression is ehhh. I started in the triage chapter and it doesn't seem terribly current. I also knew it was going to be skimpy on peds, and it is. I'm hoping that other chapters hold up better- not giving up on the book yet but definitely hoping to have some good online resources.

The ENPC book would probably be very helpful for you.

Is there a more recent version of the ENPC manual due to come out? It looks like the one I can find on Amazon was published in 2004.
