Need ideas for a FUN presentation!

Published

We're doing a group project and picked nosocomial infections. We need ideas for a 10 minute presentation that's not just reading facts and PPT stuff. Maybe a skit where we do lots of things wrong and have a prize for the person who catches the most?

It's supposed to be FUN and informative... So any ideas on what we could do would be appreciated! We have full creative license here... :)

You do something along the lines of showing how infection can spread. Like putting glitter of some kind of dye on something pretending to be infected and show how the glitter/dye transfers everywhere. We did glitter on kids hands. Had one kid pretend to sneeze in his hand, then play ball, do class stuff, etc. Glitter definitely showed up everywhere and showed them why they needed to wash their hands with soap! :).

I like that! When we did our hand washing pre clinical they put some invisible UV glowy stuff on some of the desks and then when we did the handwashing thing and looked under a black light, we got to see who all had the other glowy stuff on them too! Very neat.

A group in my class once did a presentation about proper ways to wear PPE. They had races between students to see who could properly don and take off PPE the fastest. It was lots of fun.

While I don't know how to fit it in your presentation talk about how stethoscopes carry more germs than people think... think about it, the thing hangs around the nurses neck all day and most people forget to clean it when switching from person to person. At a hospital that I had clinicals at a patient got cellulitis because a nurse removed their gloves and repalpated an IV site after cleansing it. Perhaps you could use those as what not to dos.

This is kinda funny

You could do a ''what's wrong with this'' type presentation.

It grosses me out when I see healthcare professionals sneezing / coughing into their hands.
