This paper reports on a research study carried out in an independent hospital in the south east of England. The aim of the study was to assess the basic life support skills of nurses in order to compare the results with those reported for nurses in public hospitals. The findings show that the basic life support skills of the nurses studied are poor but no worse than those of their public sector colleagues.
