Nursing Student's Clinical Survival Guide is not rivalled by anything else on the market. As a support text, this quick-reference guide assists students with tips to competently conduct clinical skills for safe and person-centred care in clinical settings. Whether used individually by nursing students through their education and into early practice or as an educator-prescribed tool to complement a text such as Berman's Skills in Clinical Nursing, Clinical Survival Guide supports students to deliver competent person-centred care in professional practice, practices, and standards.
