The theoretical,
preclinical preparation addressed n this textbook should create the conditions
for the effective practice of nursing procedures and interventions under
laboratory conditions and subsequently in clinical practice, while also reducing
the risk of inappropriate or improper nursing procedures and patient
interventions during further study. In addition to the practical exercises under
laboratory conditions, the study of this textbook should contribute to the
smooth transfer of nursing procedures and interventions from preclinical
preparation through to clinical practice while internalizing the key skills
required for the healthcare profession and general nursing.

Culture is defined as the sum of all the material and spiritual
values created in the process of social development and the tools that are used
to create and hand these values down to next generations and show the extent of
the man’s authority and control over their natural and social environment. The
nursing profession, which plays an important role in the health team, is often
based on a cultural phenomenon. The aim of nursing is to provide a
wholly caring and humanistic service respecting people’s cultural values and
lifestyles.
