Instructions: Review the skills list and indicate your current competence with each skill by checking the appropriate response. Any skills you have never done or which you can not perform accurately should be identified. Those skilled procedures will be reviewed and learning experiences provided as available. You will be checked off on each of these skills by a home health care nurse.
