Lights, camera… action! AAMC’s Nurses Week 2011 Video Challenge

Posted on March 23, 2011 by Monica Mewshaw

Ready for some fun? Our second annual Nurses Week Video Challenge is underway. This year, the theme is patient- and family-centered care!

Lead your unit or department to create a video showcasing the ways that AAMC nurses demonstrate patient- and family-centered care.

Now for the challenge. You must include each of the following themes, either verbally or visually, somewhere in your video: 1) AAMC  “lamp” (spatula, lacrosse stick…), 2)  and a crab.

Be creative! The sky is the limit–past entries were remarkable–musical numbers, dance performances, and “day in the life” spoofs. A panel of judges will select the finalists, which will be shown at the Nurses Dinner during Nurses Week.

Guidelines:

1. Only staff can be in the video. No patients, visitors, or family members, please.
2. Videos cannot be longer than two minutes in length.
3. Submit your videos–saved on flashdrive or disk in a Windows Media Player format–to Jane Lucia in Nursing Admin by Monday, April 25
