This workbook was required for my class but I would purchase it anyway. It was very useful! Using it meant I had studied at least 90% of what was necessary.

for entry level healthcare staff only by M. Arnold (Tucson, AZ) 2 Stars
March 31, 2009
This book was way too elementary for anyone beyond basic healthcare worker level. As an RN I would not recommend it... it was probably too basic for me as a medical assistant.
