How does LNPS help ensure patient safety? Patient safety notes and competency evaluations are featured with every skill and procedure, helping managers and educators to standardise care. All procedures have been evaluated by nurses and the evidence level of references is appraised using the Melnyk’s Rating System for the Hierarchy of Evidence. Is it customisable? Yes, LNPS is fully customisable and designed to meet the needs of varied institutions and care providers. Here are a few of the customisation options: • Edit content to match your policies and standards. • Create an unlimited number of customised checklists, procedures, and categories. • Track revisions with the unique Audit Trail feature. • Delete and reinstate procedures as needed. • Manage and track users as well as skills checklist and competency test results. How are procedures and skills created in LNPS? Lippincott’s Nursing Procedures and Skills were created and validated by practising nurses for nurses. Every procedure in Lippincott’s Nursing Procedures and Skills is formulated on the most recent evidence based standards of patient care. What’s included with each skill and procedure? Step-by-step sections introduce the nurse to relevant procedural information based on the level of detail required. A quick-fire introduction provides information at a glance but more extensive information is easily accessed in sections such as Preparation of Equipment or Patient Teaching. How often is content updated? Information is reviewed and updated quarterly and adapted as clinical guidelines evolve. Whereas a book may become dated LNPS will always be on the cutting-edge of nursing care. How is Lippincott’s Nursing Procedures and Skills Accessed? LNPS is accessed online within your hospital or care institution via IP authentication. This means your nurses won’t need to logon each time they need information.
