Due: Teaching plan will be uploaded to the Dropbox by the assigned due date (see course schedule).

During your NURS 2290 or 2390 clinical days, please assess for a learning need of your peers. Start by thinking about what you feel you need to know more about (your peers may need to learn more about the same things you feel you do) and then validate the learning need with your peers. Develop a teaching plan at an appropriate level for the audience (about to graduate associate degree nursing students). Your topics must be approved by your 2245 course instructor at least one week prior to the due date; post in the Discussion.

F2F students will be asked to present their staff teaching assignment in class. Please come prepared to class.

Some topics that have been very nicely addressed in the past include:

fall risk assessment and prevention of falls
tube feedings – general guidelines, types, complications, etc
ostomy care
incontinence- causes, management, etc.
infection control issues – MRSA, VRE, etc
management of different types of leg ulcers
sensory deficits and nursing management
caring for the client with chest tubes
types of IV solutions
categorization of cardiac medications
commonly used herbal remedies

These topics are ideas to get you thinking. Choose something that you can address in some depth in 15 minutes (for example, don’t choose “diabetic care” – focus on something specific such as types of insulin, etc.). Do not choose a ‘disease’ process.
