Overview

Preparing for an Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) is very different from preparing for a theoretical knowledge examination - your clinical skills and performance will be tested rather than just your knowledge of the theory. It is important to understand how to achieve the best results in an OSCE, and this handy pocket-sized guide describes each clinical skill in turn to help you feel confident and prepared for the exam. The Nursing & Health Survival Guides have evolved - take a look at our our app for iPhone and iPad.

Reviews

...having just taken (and passed!) my OSCEs, I can still remember that awful journey to get to university on the day of my OSCEs. You're nervous, you're sweating (the pages of this guide are laminated, so essentially sweat-proof - they've thought of everything), you're sure you're not prepared and that you will forget everything and/or throw up on your assessor. Having this little book was great I could flick to the pages and review the material. It is an excellent survival guide. I thoroughly recommend it, especially if you're in your first year. - AC Silva, student nurse
