AJN: American Journal of Nursing

Amazon.com Review:
The American Journal of Nursing is to its profession what the Journal of the American Medical Association is to physicians: the standard by which all related industry publications are measured. Published monthly, AJN is the official journal of the American Nurses Association and as such, harbors a high level of prestige not only among nurses, but medical professionals from all trades. Features are usually reserved for in-depth research studies or new nursing procedures. Readers also can receive continuing education credits through AJN publisher Lippincott Williams & Wilkins by taking and passing inserted mail-in tests related to such features. A news section addresses work-related issues such as adapting to new technologies, improving the workplace, trends, and new panel findings. Department articles delve into subspecialties such as infectious disease, pain control, and living with illness. AJN also keeps a classifieds section in the back of the book to help nurses seeking to relocate. As medical science advances, nursing positions become more specialized. AJN is the best way for registered nurses nationwide to receive the latest information and instruction vital to honing their skills. --Kristopher Kaiyala

Rating: - Medically informative journal
This journal is noted for its accurate and informative information in the field of nursing. It is very helpful in keeping up-to-date on the latest developments in medical science. Also, provides practical guidance in the practice of nursing. Frequently provides articles for which CME credits can be earned. Don't think I could ask for more.
Rating: - need something to revew
I would love to review this product....if I had it to review.I ordered it over a month ago and have yet to receive anything.Granted I haven't done the leg work to try and find out why, but as we all know in this profession...we are busy!I would like to not have to search for my purchase.I give it an extra star just because I anticipate that I'll like it....when I finally get it.
Rating: - Charged twice
The AJN charged me twice for one subscription and then refused to give me a refund. The customer service reps were rude to deal with and I will never buy this product again.
Rating: - A quality resource
I continue to be impressed with this journal and it's one of the very few that I read entirely.While I don't provide direct patient care today, it helps me stay current with the complex patient conditions and political issues facing nurses."Politics " is not a 4-letter word - it's vital if nursing is to maintain its role in assuring patient/family safety and quality.As for resources like Nursing Made Incredibly Easy, they possibly have a role for the very basic novice or the layperson.But ...
