This innovative workbook/CD-ROM package helps bridge the gap between the classroom and the real world by teaching students about clinical settings and critical thinking before they actually start clinical rotations ― making the transition from nursing student to caregiver a smoother process. A guided learning experience, VCE features textbook reading assignments that correspond with the CD-ROM and workbook activities. The workbook acts as a map, guiding students through the CD-ROM as they care for patients in the virtual hospital, making connections between what they experience in the virtual hospital and what they learn in the textbook. Throughout each lesson, students access realistic information resources essential to patient care, resulting in a true-to-life, hands-on learning experience.
<ul>
<li>Promotes active learning as students identify information to collect and process data for evidence-based patient care.</li>
<li>Exposes students to realistic information resources ― such as the EPR, MAR, and extensive Charts ― to prepare them for data management and decision-making on the floor.</li>
<li>Improves core computing skills as students access and evaluate the diverse hospital databases.</li>
<li>Reinforces the precepts of safe medication administration as students select, prepare, and administer medications in a harm-free environment.</li>
<li>Augments knowledge of physical assessment by allowing students to examine and record vital signs, head &amp; neck, chest, back &amp; spine, upper extremities, abdomen, pelvic, and lower extremities.</li>
<li>Fully integrates the psychosocial aspect of nursing through nurse-client interaction videos, underscoring the psychosocial component of patient care.</li>
<li>Includes over 250 NCLEX® examination-style questions that offer built-in testing of clinical knowledge.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>New flash-based technology allows more ease of use, featuring seamless one-click navigation, no plug-ins, and automatic installations.</li>
<li>The cases in VCE are all new along with new patient data in the Electronic Patient Record, Patient Charts, KARDEX, and Medication Administration Record.</li>
<li>A new medication room simulates what students will encounter in practice or in a real clinical setting.</li>
<li>Over 55 embedded medication administration errors force students to think critically about safe medication practices and follow safe medication standards.</li>
<li>Students can now sign in for multiple patients as a nurse would in practice.</li>
<li>A new Medication Scorecard provides instant feedback on correctly and incorrectly administered medications.</li>
<li>A new Examination Report checklist tracks performance on baseline and focused assessments.</li>
<li>Students now have the ability to "take a break" ― leaving the software at anytime and picking up where they left off without losing any information.</li>
<li>New workbook icons for time show approximately how long it will take to complete a particular exercise.</li>
<li>Workbook icons for linked activities indicate that a particular exercise is linked to another exercise and cannot be completed independently.</li>

Of all the recordings to emerge from the Athens-via-Denver collective called Elephant 6, Neutral Milk Hotel's second album is the one that has worked its way under the most skins. Magnet magazine named it the best album of the 1990s, and Creative Loafing recently devoted a cover story to one fan's quest to understand why band leader Jeff Mangum dropped out of sight soon after Aeroplane's release. The record sells steadily to an audience that finds it through word of mouth. Weird, beautiful, absorbing, difficult, In The Aeroplane Over the Sea is a surrealist text loosely based on the life, suffering and reincarnation of Anne Frank, with guest appearances from a pair of Siamese twins menaced by the cold and carnivores, a two-headed boy bobbing in a jar, anthropomorphic vegetables and a variety of immature erotic horrors. Mangum sings his dreamlike narratives with a dreamer's intensity, his creaky, off key voice occasionally breaking as he struggles to complete each dense couplet. The music is like nothing else in the 90s indie underground: a psychedelic brass band, its members self-taught, forging polychromatic washes of mood and tribute. The songs stick to one narrow key, the images repeat and circle back, and to listen is to be absorbed into a singular, heart-rending vision.

Scientists have demonstrated their ability to offer at least some hope of survival to those facing serious medical diagnoses. Scientists are far from the heartless analytical machines portrayed in modern literature, and doctors are much more rational than the actors pretending to emote all over their patients on certain TV shows. Scientists and physicians are people who have, by and large, taken an oath to let Nature be their primary teacher so that they can, in one way or other, help other humans and humanity thrive. Every diagnostic or treatment procedure in medicine has either been tested and shown to be effective, been likewise demonstrated ineffective or awaits careful scrutiny. This testing requires science.
This lab manual guides students through this learning and discovery process of biological health science, both imparting information and prompting observation simultaneously.
