Lesson Overview Name: Dr. Tim Bristol

Screencast Title:

Sympathetic Drugs

Environment: (on-site, online, or hybrid)

This lesson is intended for the hybrid environment. Nursing students will watch this Screencast before engaging in an on-site activity.

Screencast Goal:

This Screencast will increase student awareness of sympathetic drugs. Specifically, it will provide students with strategies that will assist them in providing care to patients who have been administered this type of medication.

Description of Screencast lesson:

This Screencast is directed towards graduate nursing students taking a pharmacology course. Basic pharmacology concepts will be reviewed. Specific sympathetic medications will be identified and potential indications/side effects will be discussed. Students will participate in various check points to independently assess their learning. At the end of the Screencast, students will be given an assignment to complete, which will be used during the on-site activity that follows this Screencast.
