Cards Against Infection: A Lecture Game for Nursing Students, Summaries of Nursing

A lecture game called 'cards against infection' designed for nursing students. It uses a playful approach to teach about the chain of infection, phases of infection, personal protective equipment, precautions, and specific infections like methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (mrsa) and urinary tract infections (uti). The game turns a mediocre class into engaging learning. Each topic is a black card and interventions, nursing considerations, and details are white cards. It includes examples and scenarios to make learning more interactive and memorable, covering topics such as infectious agents, reservoirs, portals of exit and entry, modes of transmission, and susceptible hosts. It also covers phases of infection, personal protective equipment, and precautions.
