What do I need to learn in order to progress through my course? How do I achieve the best possible patient care? 'Professional Skills for Nurses' answers both of these questions and supports the development of key nursing skills underpinned by theory. Designed specifically to meet the needs of nursing students in the initial stages of training, the book focuses on the essential knowledge and skills needed for effective patient care while at the same time helping students to achieve the NMC outcomes required for entry into branch programmes.
