Oct 12, 2026
About this video
Build a consistent, flexible framework for an adult bedside assessment. Connect the general survey with neuro/head-neck, cardiopulmonary, abdominal and elimination, extremity and mobility, and skin/device findings. Compare observations with baseline, respect privacy and communication needs, and recognize when urgent concerns should interrupt the routine sequence.
Review hand hygiene, abdominal assessment ordering, documentation of findings actually obtained, and SBAR communication with your RN/preceptor and clinical team. A fictional case supports nursing judgment in supervised practice.
This is a study overview, not a complete skills demonstration or competency validation. Follow current school/facility competencies and local procedures. Based on Open RN/WisTech Open Nursing Skills 2e (2023), CDC hand-hygiene guidance (2024), and AHRQ TeamSTEPPS SBAR (page reviewed November 2019). Includes AI-generated visuals and synthetic narration; no qualified clinician review or source-organization endorsement is claimed.
