My Nursing Screencast

Introduction

Hi, my name is Sebastien and I'm a second year nursing student. For those of you who don't know about the nursing field, I'll just explain what this program involves. It's a 3-year-long program that focuses on how to act and think as a nurse. We take biology and nursing courses which teaches us how to think critically in different medical situations, and we need that in order to develop our clinical judgment. Plus, we have 4 psychology courses witch helps us understand our patients and have empathy towards them. During our 6 semesters, we have internships in specific clinical settings that corresponds with the theme of that semester.

We all know that anatomy and pathophysiology courses are hard. And we don't want to come to an exam thinking that the one hour of studying the night before will save us. Because, one thing about the teachers of these courses they love to question you on everything! And we all want to succeed at school, right? Of course, we do. So, studying efficiently and smartly is a must, even more when you have multiple courses and have to be strategic with your time.

I've only been studying Nursing for two years now, but I would like to become a doctor some day, therefore I'm really motivated to improve my learning. I'm not the best student in class, but I'm a lot better than I was when I started.

I have above 85% on my last to nursing and biology classes.

My goal with this website is to help nursing students have reliable and quality information on different subjects seen in class.

I'll only take 3 minutes. Make a commitment to watch this to the end.

You'll be amazed by what is coming next.

The Problem

During the semester, there are not enough time to be able to read all the pages that the teachers give. Don't get me wrong all those pages will make you understand the topic. But I don't know about you, but I'm not able to read 50 pages without zoning out.

For example, I once had to learn the pathophysiology of heart attacks and let me tell you that the cardiovascular system is one hell of a system. That are a lot of things to learn, to say the least

That can be difficult. But don’t worry. I have found the solution. In the next few minutes, I’ll show you exactly how to solve this problem.

The Quest

First, open your browser. Type Le Manuel Merck. If you typed it correctly, click the first link.

On the top middle of the screen you will find a search bar. Click on it and type the pathophysiology you what more information on. For example, you can search a stoke. Then it will give you multiple articles on the subject, and you pick the one depending on your needs. I will pick the first one.

The Solution

First on the left you will see the other articles seen previously, so if you want to change it, there not far away. Then in the middle of the screen you will have all the information on that topic. On the top right-hand corner of the website you can see the option for patient education, this is especially important for us nurses because we do a lot of education. When you click on it you will see another article. Then on your top right corner you will see two options. One is for a summery of the article and the other one is the option to read the professional version of the article witch basically means it's for doctors.

The Conclusion

So, if you are in nursing school or in the medical field, that’s how you gain a better understanding of the different pathophysiology out there. I promised I would show you how to solve this issue, and I did it using the website Le Manuel de Merck.

I hope that was useful to you because I need you to do something for me. Before I finish, I want you to click the subscribe and the bell so that you don't miss my next video, and then take a moment to share this tutorial on social media. Thanks for watching.
