can somebody tell me on whats the best book i should study for psychiatric nursing. I've search one book in google and its Essentials of psychiatric mental health nursing by Mary C. Townsend..I dont know if this is the best to study for NClex RN. I appreciate the response.thanks.
As MikeyJ stated, for NCLEX, I believe that a Comprehensive Review book is more than sufficient. To go over every detail of a text at this stage of the game would be cumbersome; in fact, you may find conflicting information. Saunders comes highly recommended by most people.
I agree with MikeyJ and Pagandeva - NCLEX style review is a much better source for prepping for the exam. If Psych is a weak area of yours, maybe you could also try Prentice Hall's Reviews and Rationales for Mental Health. It's pretty good, and it helped me through school.
Best of luck to you,
