Every guide is built the same way: the numbers you're expected to interpret, the tables you'll actually reach for, caution boxes where the trap is, and a floor pearl from someone who's worked the unit. Built for the pocket and the break room — print it at US Letter or search it on your phone.

Bought separately these 19 guides run $285. The Complete Library is $109. The Nurse Preceptor Toolkit is included free.

Educational reference material for licensed clinicians and students. Not medical advice, not a protocol, and not a substitute for your facility's policies, physician orders, current drug references, or device manufacturer instructions for use. Always verify doses, settings, and parameters against your own approved sources. Where these guides and your unit policy disagree, your unit policy wins.
