Summary

The Mini Guide series is created as a set of pocket-guides that provide quick, essential drug information for nursing. The 3 pharmacology mini-guides included in this funding are drug guides that focus on the most important drug information needed for pediatrics, maternity/OB, and geriatrics. Every nurse is responsible for calculating and administering medications to patients, which requires extensive knowledge of pharmacology and specific drug agents. The mini-guides are appropriate for the clinical portion of the pediatrics course, the maternity/OB course, and the geriatric course as well as for practicing nurses. The mini-guides are portable, indispensable, scrub-pocket-sized tools that students and professionals can refer to for the delivery of safe and effective health care.
