Description
Entry Level Respiratory Therapist Exam Guide is a must-have for anyone planning to take the entry-level respiratory certification exam.
It is designed to thoroughly prepare the user by discussing every testable subject that appears on the certification examination. Every
chapter includes suggestions on how to prepare for the examination and hints on frequently tested topics. In addition, each chapter features
NBRC-type review questions with rationales for correct and incorrect answers. Finally, to help the test-taker better prepare for the
real examination, a practice pretest and posttest modeled on the real NBRC examination are included on an accompanying CD-ROM.
