Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
Becoming a Nurse has been written to help student nurses and student midwives at third year make the transition to the registered nurse or midwife role. It can be used by student nurses or midwives throughout their undergraduate program, as it introduces them to the theoretical and practical dimensions of nursing and health care practice.
MoreLong description:
Becoming a Nurse is a practical guide for third year nursing and midwifery students to assist in making the transition from student to registered nurse or midwife.
The book revisits the everyday issues students will have encountered whilst on clinical placement and identifies which ones, as registered nurses and midwives, they will be expected to deal with more comprehensively. Becoming a Nurse introduces students to the complexities of healthcare systems, explains the demands placed on all healthcare workers, and shows how nurses may work in multidisciplinary environments in order to achieve positive outcomes for themselves and their patients.
Critical thinking and analysis is featured strongly throughout the book, and is tied to those core competencies for registered nurses and midwives in Australia, which are essential for informed decision making.
