Designed for both new and experienced nurses working in the perioperative setting, Mosby’s Perioperative Nursing was created to be used in conjunction with preceptor-lead clinical orientation.
“Content from MC Strategies continues to meet the needs of the practicing nurse because it is created by experts in the field, undergoes rigorous peer-review, and includes the latest evidence-based practices,” said Barbara Nelson Cullen, Vice President of Healthcare e-Learning for Elsevier / MC Strategies. “Winning the FREDDIE award reflects our continued commitment to excellence in healthcare e-Learning and the mission and values of Elsevier.”
