Basic Nursing Skills are the foundational clinical competencies nurses use to care for patients, including taking vital signs, administering medications, wound care, and infection control. These skills are taught in nursing school and refined through clinical practice in hospitals, clinics, and long-term care facilities. They form the core toolkit for registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and nursing assistants.
