  concise, practical foundation on which Parts 2 and 3
  build.
• Part 2: Prioritization, Delegation, and Assignment in
  Common Health Scenarios give you practice in applying the principles
  from Part 1 with straightforward NCLEX-style multiple-choice,
  multiple-select, ordering, and short-answer questions to help you
  develop and build confidence in prioritization, delegation, and patient
  assignment skills while working within the confines of relatively simple
  health scenarios.
• Part 3: Prioritization, Delegation, and
  Assignment in Complex Health Scenarios utilizes unfolding cases that
  build on the skills learned in Part 2 to equip you to make sound
  decisions in realistic, complex health scenarios involving complicated
  health problems and/or challenging patient assignment decisions and help
  you learn to "think like nurses" by developing what Benner (2010) calls
  "clinical imagination."
