This is my first semester in NS so it is my fundamentals clinical. We can do anything related to nursing, nursing school, or adult med/surg. They are very flexible as long as it relates to nursing somehow.

My original idea was pressure ulcers, and since my clinical instructor loves chocolate I figured i could make small round cakes (the size that serve like 4 people each) and decorate the top of each as a stage of breakdown. All I would have to do is mix up some different icings and boom, instant teaching presentation. Well, a couple of days later we had clinical orientation and another instructor shared with the class that a former student had make lemon cupcakes (her fav) and decorated them to represent the stages of pressure ulcers! I could not believe it!!!!! :angryfire Now I am stuck finding a new idea because I obviously cannot do that anymore!!!!

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

How about placenta previa (sp)? Another poster suggested this to me & boy did my instructor love it! Got an A & she asked if she could use my demonstration as a teaching tool! Tell what it is...the stages partial, complete ect. Take a white balloon, put red sand in it & as you tell how the placenta lies turn your balloon so the sand moves to match what you are saying. The balloon is the womb...the neck is the birth canal, sand covering neck of balloon complete previa, it's blocked no way for baby to get out.Lean it to one side partial...you get the idea. Good Luck

I was worried about what to do and ended up doing it on disaster preparedness. We wowed the teacher (we had ours as partners). We made a poster board and fixed up little sample disaster kits. Our teacher really liked .. Also we shared why each item was important (except the obvious) like did you know in an emergency cituation you could use water from a water bed.. most water beds hold as much as 400 gallons of water. And to clean water you use 16 drops of common household bleach (no additives in bleach) to every gallon of water.
