Youtube!

Educators,

I find it increasingly disturbing that so many nursing students are turning to Youtube now to learn nursing concepts. Kudos to the nurses who leveraged the platform, but neither Sara, Jon or Mike (the most popular hosts) are Masters prepared or have significant years in clinical nursing.

I don't think we should "ignore" it, or just dismiss it, as we have found, that isn't working. I was thinking that schools should also develop their own channels and offer a better product on the platform. What the most popular hosts do not cover is "application in the nursing process."

Any thoughts on this trend that has grown tenfold and has taken foothold?

I know a lot of Masters prepared RNs that I would not want at my family's or my bedside.
