Nursing

These skills demonstration videos were created by a nursing instructor as a free student resource. They are aligned with the Open RN Nursing Skills OER textbook, funded by a $2.5 million grant from the Department of Education. Access the associated free OER textbook at the Open RN website (see below).

The Open RN project is led by Chippewa Valley Technical College as part of the Wisconsin Technical College System (WTCS) consortium. OER nursing textbooks and virtual simulations are collaboratively developed by faculty based on the WTCS State Nursing curriculum and the current NCLEX-RN Test Plan. Textbooks undergo national peer review by faculty, deans, industry members, and nursing students to ensure the content is accurate and relevant, written in clear language for pre-licensure nursing students, and based on current, evidence-based practices.
