The Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner Certification Review Manual 1st edition by Raymond Zakhari is designed specifically for preparation for the American Nurses Credentialing Center Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner certification examination. The manual follows the certification test blueprint and combines focused content review with examination preparation, helping candidates identify essential psychiatric nursing knowledge and apply it to board style questions.
The book covers preparation for the certification examination, the role and scope of practice of the Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, theoretical foundations of care, nonpharmacological therapies, neuroanatomy and physiology of mental illness, psychopharmacology, physical assessment, diagnostic testing, and differential diagnosis. Disorder focused chapters address substance use disorders, delirium and neurocognitive disorders, psychotic disorders, sleep disorders, mood disorders, anxiety disorders, child and adolescent neurodevelopmental disorders, personality disorders, violence, and abuse.
This manual is intended primarily for Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner certification candidates and graduate nursing students completing PMHNP preparation. Chapter objectives, focused review material, end of chapter questions, rationales, and a comprehensive practice examination make it useful for identifying weak areas, reviewing diagnostic distinctions, reinforcing medication knowledge, and practicing the type of clinical reasoning required for certification testing.
PMHNP students and ANCC certification candidates can use this edition to review psychiatric assessment, diagnosis, psychopharmacology, scope of practice, treatment principles, and major mental disorders in a structured exam focused format. The complete 1st edition is available as a searchable PDF with instant access after purchase, making it convenient for board preparation, graduate nursing review, practice questions, and targeted study.
