Description: Skills Update 3 is the third collection of articles from the popular series of the same name in the monthly magazine Community Outlook (re-named from 1 January 1995 Community Nurse). The series aims to update qualified nurses in skills they use in everyday practice, and to provide an overview of more specialized skills that require personal tuition. This clearly-illustrated, practical guide will be helpful to community nurses and to tutors in nurse education.
