Nursing Videos

Nursing school is demanding. Between reading assignments, lectures, clinical paperwork, and personal responsibilities, many students feel overwhelmed and worry that they will never truly feel confident at the bedside. RN HUB exists to change that reality.

The RN HUB nursing video library brings classroom concepts and clinical judgment to life with clear, engaging nursing videos that you can watch any time, on any device. Whether you are just beginning prerequisites, deep into medical surgical nursing, preparing for NCLEX RN, or already working as a nurse who wants a fast refresher, this page will be your central hub for video learning.

Every video is designed to answer questions that nursing students actually ask at three in the morning when they are staring at care plans and practice questions. What does this really look like in a patient room. How do I prioritize when everyone needs something at once. How do I think like a nurse instead of just memorizing facts.

This RN HUB video page will continue to grow. New nursing videos will be added on a regular basis so that you always have fresh content to support your learning. If you have ideas for new topics, you are invited and encouraged to contact RN HUB with your suggestions so that future videos can match what you need most.

WHO THESE NURSING VIDEOS ARE FOR

The RN HUB nursing video library is built for a wide audience across the nursing journey.

Pre nursing students who want a head start on vocabulary, body systems, and realistic expectations for nursing school.
Traditional and accelerated nursing students who need visual explanations of tricky concepts and real world clinical reasoning.
Students who are preparing for the NCLEX RN exam and want to practice clinical judgment and NGN style thinking with scenario based videos.
New graduate nurses in their first year of practice who want extra support as they move from student to independent nurse.
Experienced nurses who would enjoy brief review videos and updated best practices on common conditions and skills.
If you see yourself anywhere in that list, the RN HUB video library has something for you.

TYPES OF NURSING VIDEOS YOU WILL FIND ON RN HUB

The library is organized to match how nurses really think in practice, not just how content is arranged in a textbook. As more videos are added, categories may expand, but the core groups include the following.

-Clinical judgment case studies

These videos place you directly into a patient scenario and ask you to make decisions the way a nurse would in real time. You will hear a short report, see the patient, view vital signs, and then be asked questions such as

-What is your first priority.
-What assessment is the most important right now.
-Which provider order will you implement first.
-What will you tell the provider when you call.

The pulmonary embolism scenario with Mister Jones is an example of this style. Future case studies will address other high stakes situations such as heart failure exacerbation, sepsis, diabetic ketoacidosis, gastrointestinal bleed, electrolyte emergencies, and postoperative complications.

NCLEX RN and NGN style practice videos

These videos help you practice the type of clinical judgment that appears on the current NCLEX RN exam. Instead of only showing traditional multiple choice questions, RN HUB videos will walk you through unfolding scenarios where you must

-Recognize cues
-Analyze and interpret data
-Prioritize hypotheses
-Generate solutions
-Take action
-Evaluate outcomes

You will see case stems that look like exam questions, but with voiceover explanations and rationales that explain why each option is correct or incorrect. This visual and auditory approach helps students who do not learn well from text alone.

Skill refresher videos

Sometimes you just need to see a skill performed step by step with a clear explanation of the why behind each step. RN HUB skill videos focus on safety and critical thinking, not just on memorizing a checklist. Planned skills include

-Focused respiratory assessment
-Focused cardiac assessment
-Central line care principles and infection prevention concepts
-Safe medication administration principles such as rights of medication administration and high alert medication concepts
-Basic oxygen therapy and escalation of support
-Safe use of incentive spirometry
-Assessment of surgical wounds and dressings
-Neurologic checks and mental status assessments

These videos will never replace live skills practice, but they will give you a strong foundation and a confidence boost before clinical or check offs.

Pathophysiology and concept review videos

Some topics are simply easier to understand when you can watch them unfold with visuals, diagrams, and simple explanations. RN HUB pathophysiology videos will cover big picture concepts such as

-What actually happens in the body during sepsis
-How a deep vein thrombosis becomes a pulmonary embolism
-What fluid volume overload does to the heart and lungs
-Why uncontrolled diabetes creates long term complications
-How acid base balance works in real patients

Each concept video will connect physiology to assessment findings, nursing interventions, and patient education, so that you can translate theory directly into practice.

Study strategy and mindset videos

Success in nursing school is not just about content. It is also about how you study, how you manage your time, and how you cope with stress. RN HUB will offer videos that address

-Evidence informed study strategies for nursing exams
-How to approach practice questions so they actually help
-Test anxiety and practical skills that can reduce it
-Managing clinical stress and emotional overload
-Building a professional mindset from the very first semester

These topics are often neglected in formal curricula, yet they make a huge difference in how students feel and perform.

HOW TO USE RN HUB NURSING VIDEOS FOR MAXIMUM LEARNING

Watching videos passively is convenient, but real learning happens when you engage with the material. Here are several ways to use the RN HUB nursing video library effectively.

Pause often and predict what will happen next. When the narrator presents a scenario, pause the video before the answer appears. Say out loud what you would do and why. Then compare your thinking with the explanation.
Take brief written notes using your own words. Do not attempt to write down every line. Instead, capture the key pattern or rule. For example, after a sepsis video you might write, “In any patient with infection, watch for increased heart rate, abnormal temperature, increased respiratory rate, confusion, low blood pressure, and decreased urine output.”
Teach back to a friend or classmate. Choose a video, watch it, then explain the scenario to someone else without looking at your notes. If you can teach it clearly, you probably understand it.
Use videos as a warm up before clinical. The night before you go to a medical surgical or stepdown unit, watch one or two related videos. If you are assigned to a patient with heart failure, watch a video about fluid volume overload and respiratory assessment. This primes your brain to notice important cues the next day.
Revisit videos during NCLEX RN prep. As you work through practice questions, make a note of topics that feel weak. Then come back to this library and rewatch videos that address those weaknesses. Repetition spaced over time greatly improves retention.

WHY RN HUB NURSING VIDEOS ARE DIFFERENT

Many video platforms contain nursing content, but the quality varies widely and it can be frustrating to search through long lists of unrelated topics. RN HUB takes a different approach.

Every video begins with the central question. What does a nursing student or working nurse actually need at the bedside or in an exam setting. The script is written by a nurse who understands both clinical reality and the pressure of high stakes testing.

Several guiding principles shape every RN HUB nursing video.

Clear, conversational language. Complex conditions are explained using everyday words whenever possible. Medical terminology is used correctly, but always with a brief translation into plain language so that the concept sticks.
Clinical accuracy. Scenarios reflect current accepted practice and realistic vital signs and assessments. When a case describes sepsis, pulmonary embolism, heart failure, or another condition, the findings align with recognized clinical patterns.
Focus on clinical judgment. Instead of listing facts, videos show you how a nurse connects data, anticipates problems, and chooses actions. This matches the expectations of modern nursing practice and testing.
Respect for student time. Videos are structured to deliver the most value in a focused period, so you can learn even when you only have a small block between other responsibilities.
Ongoing improvement. Because RN HUB actively invites feedback, future videos can be refined based on what students and nurses say is most helpful.

EXAMPLE VIDEO FLOW FOR A TYPICAL RN HUB CASE

To give you a sense of what it is like to follow along with a clinical scenario, here is a simplified outline of how a case video might unfold. This is not a script, but a description of the learning experience.

You begin with a brief introduction to the patient. You see age, relevant history, current diagnosis, and the reason for admission.

The video then shows you a snapshot of the current situation such as vital signs, mental status, and the patient’s own words about how they feel.

You are asked to make a decision. What is your first action. What is the highest priority. Which assessment matters most at this moment.

The narrator pauses and prompts you to decide before moving on.

Next you hear a detailed explanation of the best answer, including the rationales for why other options are less safe or less effective.

You see a change in the patient’s condition, and you repeat the process. Recognize cues, analyze what they mean, plan, act, and evaluate the outcome.

By the end of the video, you have essentially walked through an entire shift with one patient in compressed time. Learning this way prepares you for both simulation labs and real clinical experiences, where you must integrate knowledge on the fly.

HOW OFTEN NEW NURSING VIDEOS WILL BE ADDED

The RN HUB nursing video library is not a static collection. New videos will be added periodically so that the content grows with the needs of the nursing community. As clinical guidelines evolve and as the NCLEX RN exam continues to emphasize clinical judgment, RN HUB will create updated scenarios and explanations.

You may see new content appear around busy times in the academic year, such as the beginning of each semester and in the months when many students schedule their licensing exam. However, suggestions from learners are just as important as the calendar.

That is why your feedback matters. If you would like a new video on a specific medication class, a particular pathophysiology concept, or a nursing skill that feels confusing, please let RN HUB know.

HOW TO CONTACT RN HUB WITH VIDEO SUGGESTIONS

RN HUB is committed to listening to nursing students and working nurses. The best teaching topics often come directly from the questions people ask privately because they are afraid everyone else already understands.

If you have an idea for a nursing video, a type of clinical case you want to see, or a concept that has never quite clicked for you, please reach out.

Visit the RN HUB website and use the contact form to send your suggestion. You can share as much or as little detail as you like. Here are a few examples of helpful messages.

I am struggling to understand the difference between chronic stable heart failure signs and acute decompensated heart failure signs. Can you make a case study that walks through that change.

I am confused about which lab values matter most when evaluating kidney function in a patient with sepsis. A video that connects labs to real symptoms would help.

Our class keeps mixing up respiratory acidosis and metabolic acidosis. Could you create a short series that shows what each one looks like in the real world.

Every suggestion is read and considered. While it may not be possible to create every single idea, themes that appear repeatedly will become priority topics in future nursing videos.
