Two F.A. Davis nursing manuals of diseases and diagnostic testing
are at the heart of the Nursing Central package. They are supported
by the best-selling Taber’s Cyclopedic Medical Dictionary
and Davis’s Drug Guide, the winner of the 2005 Handango

“Through our partnership with Unbound Medicine, we can help
nurses get quick answers to clinical questions using the sources
that they trust. Nursing Central includes practical guidelines for
patient testing, nursing diagnosis, care planning, and patient education,”
said Rob Craven, CEO of F.A. Davis. “Furthermore, we are able
to update the drug information automatically whenever nurses synchronize
their PDAs.”
“Nursing Central is the latest release in our family of Central
