I'm seeing these Health Assessment video's on YouTube for C349/350 Health Assessment ... is this for the RN-BSN program?? Just trying to figure out if WGU is a good route for me but I already am questioning the program....this assessment test is something I did during my ADN program to pass Fundamentals. Thanks for any information.

There are actually 2 different health assessment classes that require videos. One is in the RN-MSN and there is an MSN version. The MSN version is a bit longer and more involved. Do not let this class scare you off it is not bad at all. Its a test, a video, and an online virtual patient thing. Not too bad.

c349 is the RN-BSN version

c350 is "comprehensive health assessment" in the MSN portion

You have to make videos for both and you cannot use the same one.

I don't think this class assignment is a good indication of the material in the program, no. What exactly are you concerned might not be a good fit? The health assessment video is really an annoying, very small piece of the program.

Health Assessment is a standard class in RN to BSN programs. I doubt you will find a program that doesn't include it. Obviously, everyone in an RN to BSN program has already had formal teaching in health assessment, as this is a fundamental aspect of nursing. The BSN class is intended to be more in-depth. Whether it actually is or not is going to depend on your ADN program, but most people find the health assessment class includes things they weren't previously familiar with.
