The National Nursing Home License Exam Study Guide: A Comprehensive Preparation Guide for Administrators and Directors of Nursing

Rating:
Summary: EXCELLENT BOOK FOR NUSING HOME ADMINISTRATORS
Review: I READ THIS BOOK AND I THINK IT'S A MUST READ FOR NEW ADMINISTRATORS PREPARING TO TAKE THE EXAM AND SEASONED LTC ADMINISTRATORS, JUST TO KEEP ABREST OF HELPFUL LTC MANAGEMENT TOOLS AND TRENDS. I THINK THIS BOOK SERVES AS AN EXCELLENT COMPLIMENT TO THE NAB EXAM REVIEW, BUT IT GOES BEYOND WHAT THE NAB INCLUDES IN THEIR STUDY GUIDE. THIS BOOK INCLUDES SEVERAL MORE CONSIDERATIONS AND "REAL-LIFE" EXAMPLES IN LTC MANAGEMENT THAT THE NAB DOES NOT EVEN TOUCH ON. EVERY LTC ADMINISTRATOR SHOULD HAVE THIS BOOK AVAILABLE UPON THEIR BOOKSHELF. CONGRATULATIONS TO THE AUTHORS.

Summary: Don't buy it!
Review: Under the stress of trying to quickly prepare for the NAB, I ordered this book directly from McGraw-Hill. I did not realize that the NAB has its own preparation materials that you can order. The problem with the book is that it does not give you the specific regulations that you need to know to take the NAB. The book gives an overview of what Administrators need to know, but does not supply specifics. The sample exam questions are good, but there aren't enough. I also do not think the book is easy to follow. I am an avid reader, but had to re-read some passages several times to understand the point of the passage.
