Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
The Case Manager's Survival Guide
Toni G. Cesta · 2003
68/100
👎 Skip It
This is a genuinely respected professional textbook — real case studies, sample forms, and enough staying power to reach a third edition and get used across hundreds of classrooms and certification programs. It's built for nurse case managers specifically, so outside that lane it won't have much to offer.
