In almost all care settings, the nurse is responsible for obtaining vital signs. These include a heart rate, blood pressure, respiratory rate, temperature, oxygen saturation, and level of pain. Obtaining accurate and timely vital signs is crucial since they form the basis of many clinical decisions.
In this course, you’ll learn how to obtain each of the above-mentioned vital signs correctly, what important considerations to keep in mind, how to obtain highly accurate values, and the multiple ways in which certain vital signs can be measured (e.g., oral vs. rectal temperature).

The emphasis has been placed on the necessary points with great explanation and tone Additionally, demonstrating it on a real person is very nice. Thank you Samatha and Lecturio
Lecturer describes the concepts perfectly, clear and concise with extra nuggets.
I needed to refresh knowledge of vital signs before placement at my nursing school and this was perfect, it also has the benefit of not only saying whats normal and not but a little of the physiology of why! will revisit when I need to refresh over the years.
Love this program it's very helpful and I'm actually learning how to become a better nurse
