I purchased Nursing Central instead of the three book pack for nursing school, a far more practical option compared to dragging basically dictionaries and encyclopedias to clinicals where space is a premium and none can be carried in my scrub pockets while on the floor which is where I need these reference books. So this feature is huge in its self. I also purchased two other apps in the same family of Unbound Medicine apps, the Nursing Pocket Diagnosis, and the Taylor Handbook of Clinical Nursing Skills. Despite many the advantages of having these apps all available within one app that I can keep in my pocket and use at any time during my clinicals (my hospital has conceded to the fact that people can get far more done, and learn far more by have immediate internet access or access to apps such as these while on duty, so my hospital allows us to have and use our phones while on the floor). Overall this is a good product, I wish Unbound would make necessary improvements to make these apps more functional. One major issue I have and this is just completely unacceptable is the fact the NANDA Dxs are out of date. They are only current till the last NANDA convention, I think as of 2014, this app doesnt reflect new diagnoses, discontinued, or modified diagnoses, that is entirely unacceptable. It does not include Fluid Volume, Deficit. NANDA is a living breathing entity that is reviewed and updated every two years and this app needs to be continuously updated to reflect this fact. I could go on and on about several of the many smaller problems but I wont. I still recommend this app but it needs many updates.
