Welcome to Learning Nurse Nuggets. In this section, we look at some of the common mistakes / errors made by nurses and offer suggestions on how to avoid / prevent them. Each Nursing Nugget program consists of:

• Problem: identification and brief description of the nursing error / mistake
• Consequence: what may happen as a result of this error / mistake
• Solution: suggestions on what to do to prevent this nursing mistake from happening.

Prototype Delivery Approaches

We had fun experimenting with different possible ways to deliver the information about common nursing errors and mistakes. Here are some of the options we tried for the topic of Collecting Sensitive Patient Data.

• e-Learning module – with female and male narrators
• e-Learning module – with a female narrator
• e-Learning module – with a male narrator
• Animated avatar module – male and female characters
• Animated avatar module – female character
