Hi nurses! I need to find a website where I can watch actual clinical skills such as IV therapy, colostomy care, etc. I'm a new RN and I have a couple of clinical skills books, but I prefer to watch the actual skills. Any free or paid websites?? Thanks for your help. :)

Ask your preceptor or unit educator, as your hospital may well have a library of learning aids of this type.

You can also search YouTube, but be aware of the limitations of watching procedures performed with equipment/supplies quite different from what is actually available in your unit/facility.

Have you searched you tube. There were a lot of skills videos on there when I did my CNA training. They may have nursing ones also.

Off topic, but out of curiosity I did the math for those " my neighbor's mailman's ex-wife's neighbor's second cousin twice removed" spam messages that keep popping up. Assuming a 20-day work month, the subject works 12 hours a day. If they work every day in a 30-day month, they work 8 hours. That's a full-time job, not "a few hours a day."

LOL HouTx -- AN has recently been repeatedly hit by spammers. There may have been one of those "call now to find out how to make $ xxx per hour on the internet" posts here in this thread before it was removed by AN staff, I don't remember. But there have been a noticeable number of them in the last few weeks.

yeah, that was totally out of no where. no relevance to what the conversation is about

regarding videos, I have been looking as well. I have found some by just googling for them.

Yep, google/youtube around. If you are good at searching you can find college sites that show all of them. Keep looking, they are out there.
