Nursing Compass: Navigating Concepts

by Claire Gammon MSN, RN & Tammie Wilson MS, RN

This series provides clear, practical lectures for Practical Nursing (LPN) students learning in a concept-based curriculum. While focused on the LPN role, the content supports all nursing students who want to strengthen their understanding of core concepts. Each session covers essential areas of nursing practice—such as safety, communication, professional identity, perfusion, gas exchange, metabolism, elimination, tissue integrity, and more—with explanations that connect theory to real-world clinical care. Content is aligned to NCLEX-PN preparation and emphasizes the knowledge and skills needed for success in both classroom learning and clinical practice. Designed to simplify complex concepts, reinforce critical thinking, and build confidence, these lectures help nursing students move from learning to application at the bedside.
