Hello all! I'm looking forward to start working on a psy unit in the near future; wanted to purchase some reading materials i can carry around to read for my job (i.e. Psychiatric nursing made incredibly easy!). All suggestions are welcomed! Thanks! :blink:

Journal of Psychosocial Nursing is a good way to stay on top of current psych knowledge.

That's definitely a good way to start! Thanks :)

Cool! Are you planning on working with adults or children? If you're interested in children, I'm reading a really fascinating (but sad) book called "The boy who was raised as a dog" and it's written by a child psychiatrist who talks about severely traumatized children that he's worked with. Also reading "I don't want to talk about it" which sheds light on male depression. Best of luck!

Not that it's in any size that you could pocket, I recommend Stahl's Essential Psychopharmacology: Neuroscientific Basis and Practical Applications by Stephen Stahl. You could buy a less recent copy for near nothing.
