Medications: Tricyclic glycopeptides Prototype: Vancomycin
Your manager explained that all of the emergency center nurses at RGH will be educated in small groups through a short, in-service training session. You have been asked to develop a professional-looking PowerPoint presentation that the trainers will use to guide the in-service sessions. Your PowerPoint will need to:
Be professional-looking, have a title slide, and 6 content slides.
Notes feature in PowerPoint to reduce the amount of text that appears on the content slides.
Notes for each slide will contain the text that will guide what the trainer will say while presenting the slides during the in-service.
The content slides themselves should be clear and easy to understand; they serve as an outline so the audience can follow along with what is being presented.
Be written using proper spelling/grammar and at a level that would be appropriate for the audience.
Remember the purpose of the training is to help nurses learn to educate their clients about the use of a medication. With that in mind, it may be helpful to provide examples of how to explain the information to a client in an easy-to-understand way without complicated, technical terms.
Include APA formatted in-text citations for at least 3 scholarly references and present the sources in APA format on a References slide.
Contain content addressing the items below.
