So you can revise quickly, prepare for OSCE and viva, and carry the skill out in the ward, ICU or emergency room in the right order.

Questions nurses ask

How will I receive the manual?

After payment the PDF is sent to the email ID you enter at checkout. Please type your email carefully and check your spam folder if you do not see it.

Does it repeat the Nursing Foundation manual?

Partly. About a third of the skills are basic procedures that every advanced list includes, such as injections, suctioning and wound dressing, and these are the same text as in the Nursing Foundation and Community Health manuals. About 100 skills are written only for this manual.

Does it have diagrams?

Yes, 164 drawn diagrams and figures, plus tables of scores, ranges and formulas. It does not contain photographs.

Will the values match my hospital?

The manual gives commonly used values and examples. Protocols differ between hospitals and guidelines are revised, so always follow your own unit's protocol and the prescription.

Is it a one-time payment?

Yes, ₹499 once, through Razorpay (UPI, cards, net banking).
