Bringing theory to life

The Fundamentals of Nursing Clinical Skills Workbook is an essential resource for undergraduate nursing students across Australia and New Zealand. This workbook complements the 7th edition of Potter and Perry's Fundamentals of Nursing by helping readers apply clinical skills to the real world.

The workbook provides clear, step-by-step instructions for students to work through and master 82 clinical skills that are fundamental to nursing practice. A patient-centred approach supports deeper learning, while detailed checklists and assessment tools enable both students and assessors to track progress.

Comprehensively updated and revised, this resource is an ideal learning aid that will encourage students to build capability in critical thinking and clinical reasoning for safe and effective nursing practice.
