The theoretical,
preclinical preparation addressed n this textbook should create the conditions
for the effective practice of nursing procedures and interventions under
laboratory conditions and subsequently in clinical practice, while also reducing
the risk of inappropriate or improper nursing procedures and patient
interventions during further study. In addition to the practical exercises under
laboratory conditions, the study of this textbook should contribute to the
smooth transfer of nursing procedures and interventions from preclinical
preparation through to clinical practice while internalizing the key skills
required for the healthcare profession and general nursing.
