Question: Do we have electronic
access to a reference by Perry and Potter? I am hearing that this is a great
nursing resource? Thanks!
Answer : I believe you are referring to the “Perry and
Potter” book, officially known as :
Clinical
Nursing Skills and Techniques (Perry & Potter) by Anne
Griffin Perry; Patricia A. Potter; Wendy Ostendorf ISBN: 9780323083836 Publication Date: 2014

Unfortunately,
we do NOT have online access to this wonderful reference. The publisher
knows how valuable it is, and they do NOT make it available for purchase as a
single eBook to Libraries or institutions. They will only sell it as part of a much larger online package
called Clinical Skills or Clinical Key for Nursing, which are similar
to Nursing Reference Center.
We do have
a print copy at the Mercy Medical Center Library in Reference, meaning it does
not circulate.
Deb
Knippel also has a print copy at the St Michael’s Hospital Library at 2501 Main
in Stevens Point.
On the
Affinity side, this was always the go-to nursing procedure manual, so every
nursing floor/department had their own copy—again because the online version
was not available to us.
If you
want to check a particular chapter or section, I can scan and email select
pages to you.
You can
find several alternative Nursing Procedures references (eBooks and/or Print) on The Nursing
Standards LibGuide at http://ministryhealth.libguides.com/nursingstandards which also includes links for Nursing Reference Center.
Nursing
Reference Center has a great Skills & Procedures section that
IS available online all over Ministry Health Care. Take the tour
here.
