Professional Training

The material collected here is intended for use by nursing and medical professionals, and those in training for those professions.

The content may not be appropriate for sensitive viewers or children, as we use nursing and medical education grade images, videos, and text that some may find disturbing.

While this material may be very useful to students of the health sciences, reviewing this content does not and cannot provide competence or certification.

Such competence can only be assured after completion of an accredited training program under the guidance of qualified instructors.

Non-Nursing Visitors

I welcome visitors to this site who have no nursing or medical background. I understand you might be considering a nursing career, or are seeking nursing information for yourself or a family member. Or you may simply be curious.

I'm glad you're here.

But while you're here, please remember that this material is focused on training students in the healthcare professions.

1. The Brookside Associates does not necessarily endorse or agree with all of the clinical opinions expressed, as those opinions belong to the authors.

2. The information provided through this site was believed by its’ authors to be reasonably accurate and reliable when it was first published. Since then, scientific knowledge and clinical experience has expanded. Consequently, some of the opinions expressed here are probably out of date, or would be phrased differently if written today.

All of these limitations should be considered in reviewing the contents of this website.
