I'm enrolled in Vanderbilt's Neonatal NP program & this book is used as the primary resource for our advanced neonatal assessment course. In addition, I've been a NICU RN or 4 years & this book is fundamental for any nurse in this specially area.

This is my favorite book on Neonatal assessment of All time! I loan my copy out to new nurses who are orienting with me as well as nursing students. In this process, I lost my copy and had to buy another. It was worth it! I am now studying for certification and I wouldn't be without this book as one of my study sources. You can be sure I will be more careful with this copy of Physical Assessment. CamiPhysical Assessment of the Newborn: A Comprehensive Approach to the Art of Physical Examination

Ms. Tappero and Honeyfield cover the newborn assessment so thoroughly, concisely and clearly you can't help but want to learn more! Also, an excellent study guide for NCC certification exams.

This book is a hit in the nursery! The photos are great, and the explanations also good. We pass it around in the nursery, all the new nurses want to get a peak! Newborns are a different breed and the signs of trouble can be quite subtle, this book can help!

A detailed reference that I will use repeatedly. It is a required resource for school. There are many pictures that help explain the work. I will be using it more along the way.

EXCELLENT BOOK!A GREAT VARIETY OF IMAGES,OBJECTIVE APPROACH ABOUT THE SUBJECT.

This was a gift to my mentor. It was perfect she gave me hers (it was sell used). She loved the surprise- thx

This is the best book out there on neonatal assessment. I show it to everyone who comes through my nursery!
