Illustrative Decision Round — post-operative patient observation.
Three decisions, about five minutes. A fictional patient's condition gradually changes; your choices shape what happens next, followed by a structured debrief. Nothing you choose is stored.

Fictional observations for illustration only.
You are on an evening ward round. Mr. Rao is 18 hours after surgery. He greets you pleasantly and says he feels “fine — just tired.” His observations were taken 40 minutes ago. Each value sits towards the upper edge of his usual range.
What do you do first?
Illustrative and unreviewed. The scenario, response options, consequences and debrief are draft educational material adapted from an internal prototype. They require approval by qualified nursing SMEs before public use.
No single right answer for every setting. Appropriate responses depend on the care setting, local protocols and the learner's scope of practice.
No data, no score. All state stays in your browser and is cleared when you leave. This demonstration does not assess competence or calculate a NurseEQ™ Score.
