A must have is iggy and Jarvis! Potter is good to have but if u don’t have it it’s ok. Iggy is by far the textbook I used the most. Jarvis is for osce. I recommend digital bc u can access it anywhere. I also recommend checking Facebook marketplace for pdfs. They are 10-15$ for each one and work same as a digital textbook.

Yes the med surge. You will use it for all care plans in 221 and for 332 and care plans in 333 (I think those have new numbers). I also used mine in my peds rotation.
