This 1952 hardcover book, 'Care of the Medical Patient', is a great resource for nurses. It's written by Margene O. Faddis and Joseph M. Hayman, Jr., and published by McGraw - Hill Book Company, Inc. The book is in good condition. Although there's some rubbing on the edges, corners, and spine, and the spine and label are sunned. There are markings from the previous owner on pastedowns, free - endpapers, and throughout the pages. The text block is slightly tanned with age, but the binding is tight and the interiors are clean.
This book is a valuable reference for nurses. To use it, simply open it up and start reading the chapters relevant to your patient care needs. When handling the book, be gentle due to its age. To maintain it, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent further sunning of the spine and label. Also, try to keep it clean to avoid adding more markings. If you need to take notes, use a bookmark or a separate notebook instead of writing in the book.
