Skills
Skills checklists are step-by-step clinical procedure guides for newly hired care professionals and their preceptors or for established practitioners mastering a new skill or process.
All inpatient, Emergency Department, and Pre-Op PACU RNs should complete the General Core Skills Packet, POCT Packet (tests performed by department of hire only), and specialty area packet. Ambulatory staff should complete the ambulatory packet for their position and the POCT Packet (tests performed by department of hire only). Instructions for completing the skills checklists are located under the Instructions tab below.
The listed skills were reviewed by the Professional Development Council. Please review the instructions, complete the required packet and submit to Center for Professional Practice of Nursing (CPPN) for data entry into UC Learning Center records. CPPN does not keep a copy of the skills packet after data entry. Documents are in PDF format.
