Hello, friends. I have got a great video for you today. If you don’t already know, my name is Élise. I have been in nursing program for 2 years. The Nursing program prepares students to provide medical care and support to patients in hospitals, clinics, and other healthcare settings. In this program, students learn how to assess patients’ health conditions, take vital signs, administer medications, and assist doctors and other healthcare professionals. The program includes both classroom learning and clinical placements where students gain practical experience working with real patients.
One important challenge in the nursing field is managing a heavy workload. Nurses often care for many patients at the same time, which can make it difficult to give each patient enough attention. This situation requires strong time management, communication, and stress-management skills to ensure that patients receive safe and effective care. Now, I am going to show you how to create a glossary.
We all want good grades at school. Am I right? I know I do, and you do, too, I’m sure.
I'm not an expert, but I have done a lot of research recently on the subject.
Thanks to all the research I've done, I can assure you that by the end of this video, you'll know how to do it and you're going to get good grades!
My goal is to help you better understand and use the website.
It'll only take 3 minutes. Make a commitment to watch this to the end.
It is astonishing what you can do with the website I’m going to show you.
In the field of nursing, students and new nurses often encounter many complex medical terms during their studies and clinical placements. These terms are used by healthcare professionals in hospitals, textbooks, and patient records, and they can sometimes be difficult to understand.
If nursing students do not clearly understand this vocabulary, they may misunderstand instructions, have difficulty communicating with colleagues, or make mistakes when caring for patients.
For example, a nursing student might see a term like “hypertension” or “tachycardia” in a patient chart but may not fully remember what it means during a busy shift.
To help solve this problem, I will explain how to create a glossary of important nursing terms that students can use to better understand and remember medical vocabulary.
Let me show you the website. First, click on the search bar and type labo d’anglais.com, then look for Virtual Writing Tutor.
In the top right corner, you will see a small icon where you can log in. Next, you will find the navigation menu with all the options on the site.
To create a glossary, click on Writing Tools, then select Glossary Creator. On the left sidebar, where it says New Glossary Title, you can enter a title for your glossary. Then click on New Glossary. Start by entering the topic of your glossary and write a short introduction explaining the purpose of your glossary.You can click on the pencil icon for each section you need to fill in. When you enter words or sentences, you also have the options Sentence Case and Check Grammar to help you write correctly. When you are finished, click Save. In the middle of the screen at the bottom, the Term icon allows you to add more terms to your glossary. Let me show you two small tips for pronunciation and inserting an image. First, click on Pronunciation, then click on the sound icon. After that, click Save. To add an image, click on the Go icon at the top left. Then type a word in the search bar so an image appears. Once you have chosen an image, right-click on it with your mouse and select Copy Image Address. Paste the link into the bar provided for the image. Write a short description of the image and click Save.
In this video, I showed you how to create a glossary using the Virtual Writing Tutor. A glossary can help nursing students understand and remember important medical vocabulary.
Now it’s your turn! Try creating your own glossary with important terms from your courses. If you found this video helpful, start building your glossary today and keep adding new terms as you learn them.
