Overview of Clinical Skills

Clinical Skills is an online skills and procedures reference system that Allina Health has selected as its evidence-based source for nursing practice. With over 1300 skills or procedures based on accepted nursing standards, Clinical Skills helps nurses refresh their knowledge or learn new skills and procedures in a variety of nursing practice areas.

You can directly search for a skill or procedure, or browse by specialty or category. Information is typically broken down into Quick Sheets, Checklist, Supplies, Tests, Demos, Illustrations, and Extended Texts (including references). A direct link to the companion resource ClinicalKey for Nursing is also provided.

Clinical Skills provides CE credit, but individuals must be logged in and self-enroll in skills prior to reviewing them. Find out how with this guide.
