The fundamentals of nursing include several key principles.

• Patient assessment: checking vital signs like temperature, pulse, and blood pressure to spot changes early.
• Hygiene protocols: washing hands correctly and using protective gear to keep patients safe.
• Medication administration: giving the right drug, dose, and route while following the five rights of safe practice.
• Documentation: recording observations clearly so the whole care team stays informed.

A private tutor can walk you through each concept with real-world examples.
