I teach nursing aids and this is the manualI use with my students.excellent manual and my students use also the workbook.
The book is easy to read and understand; it has lots of pictures and presents the material in a very encouraging way. I recommend it to anyone who is looking for a basic guide for those who plan to work as assisted-living or nursing home care-givers.A CD is supposed to be in the book. I am disappointed that the seller never responded to my emails about that CD being missing.
I bought this book because I'm goin to take a CNA course & everything that is in the table on content for my schooling is in this book! It's a great study/learning book. & it's easy to follow.
