The book will focus on all of the practical procedures that a graduating medical student is required to proficiently perform, in-line with current GMC competencies.  It will provide clear explanations of each skill so that they can be efficiently learned, and ultimately, safely practiced.  It will use clear images, and a step-by-step approach to demystify each practical procedure and skill.  It will also contain boxes and learning points highlighting clinically relevant knowledge (such as drawing order for taking routine bloods, so that additives do not contaminate other samples), and other clinical hints and tips.  The print book will be supported by a series style companion website featuring a bank of MCQs to test knowledge, as well as videos of procedures, accessible only once book has been purchased.
