Video Description: Respiration rate is measured to determine the number of times per minute a person breathes. Changes in the respiration rate may indicate a more serious condition, or can indicate when a patient is experiencing too much stress. A patient who is told that you will be measuring his/her breathing will often unknowingly change the pattern of their breathing causing irregular or shallow breathing to occur. The best time to check the respiration rate is right after taking the patient’s pulse.

Video Description: PPE training video: How to don and doff PPE (personal protective equipment) nursing skill tutorial.
In this video, Nurse Sarah demonstrates one of the possible sequences for donning and doffing PPE. PPE is designed to protect nurses when working around potentially infectious agents.
This is an important nursing skill that nurses and nursing students will need to learn, especially when working with certain patient populations or high risk areas.
One sequence used for donning PPE, as demonstrated in this video, is the gown first, then the mask or respirator, the goggles or face shield, and finally, the gloves. You will also perform hand hygiene before and during the donning process, as Nurse Sarah demonstrated.
When doffing PPE, the sequence demonstrated in this video is gloves first, then gown, then face shield/goggles, and then the mask or respirator. Again, you will perform hand hygiene during the doffing process as well.
Please note: PPE donning and doffing sequences can and do sometimes change, so it's important to always follow the latest protocols set by your healthcare facility.

Video Description: Documentation serves as a legal record of the care received by a resident. As a result, it can be used in a court of law to prove if a resident received appropriate care that is in accordance with State and Federal regulations. The primary form of documentation that nurse aides are responsible for is the Activities of Daily Living sheet. The information on an ADL sheet can help a care-giving team find out if a residents condition is remaining the same, getting worse or improving. A nurse aides documentation can be critical to the development of an ongoing care plan that addresses a residents individual needs. Other types of documentation that may be expected of nurse aides include charting vital signs and recording whether or not a resident is experiencing pain.

Video Description: Nursing home residents are twice as likely to fall as older adults who are living in the community. Every year about 1800 people die as a result of falling in nursing homes. Of those who survive a fall, many suffer from fear of falling, disability, loss of function and reduced quality of life. This video highlights common fall hazards found throughout a typical day for a nursing home resident. The locations addressed in this video are the bedroom, bathroom hallways and corridors, lighting and out-of-doors. Footwear and wheelchair safety are also discussed. This project was supported by funds from the Bureau of Health Professions(BHPr), Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) under grant number UB4HP19060, Gateway Geriatric Education Center, for $418,203.

Video Description: Being alert to mental changes and reporting them is an important part of a frontline caregivers responsibilities. Mental changes may signal an immediate threat to a residents health or well-being. Changes or a decline in mental condition can make a resident more difficult to care for as well as place the resident at a higher risk for falls or other types of accidents. Because CNAs spend the most time with residents, they are most likely to notice changes in a residents mental condition. The changes that a caregiver reports are an important first step in getting the help that a resident needs. Taking this first step may even turn out to be a lifesaving action.
