Basics of Nursing Practices and Interventions

Introduction

Dear readers,

Welcome to the website "Basics of Nursing Practices and Interventions" which was created under the auspices of the Masaryk University Development Fund project.

This website provides an overview of basic nursing techniques. These techniques are essential professional skills for both medical and non-medical disciplines. This overview is intended for all students of the Faculty of Medicine of Masaryk University, as a part of your undergraduate training in theoretical and practical subjects related to clinical practice.

This extended edition of the electronic material offers an English version of the text in addition to the Czech version. Some terms in the English version refer to specific regulations, customs, equipment, or abbreviations used at healthcare institutions in the Czech Republic. For this reason, these terms might not always match the standard terms used in English-language publications.

The text is available online in a downloadable version. It offers subjective and succinct descriptions of nursing methods, procedures and interventions, accompanied by detailed photographs. An application is included for practising professional terminology.

We believe that the information given here will help you learn proper techniques for working with patients and increase confidence in your professional knowledge.

We hope you enjoy reading this guide, and we wish you success in your studies!
