Special Considerations address teaching, the home care setting, and care modifications for pediatric and geriatric patients. Clear, two-column format shows how to perform skills, with rationales for each step explaining the reason behind the practice and the benefit to patients. A Gloving logo identifies procedures in which clean gloves should be worn or gloves should be changed in order to minimize the risk of infection. Documentation guidelines include a bulleted list of what should be reported and recorded in the patient records. Alphabetical organization of skills makes it easy to find information quickly, and each skill begins on a new page. A convenient pocket size and spiral binding allow the book to fit easily into your coat pocket and to stay open on the page you want. UNIQUE! Up-to-date content is based on the most recent edition of Perry & Potter’s Clinical Nursing Skills & Techniques, the bestselling nursing skills text. NEW! Additional nursing skills include instructions for blood glucose testing and applying a pressure bandage, both important skills in today's practice.
