Who this is course for


  • Nursing students entering OB rotations who want to walk into clinical prepared

  • New graduate L&D nurses in the first 0-18 months, still building strip confidence

  • Refresher learners returning to labor and delivery after time away

  • Preceptors and charge nurses who want a shared framework to teach with

  • Any nurse who has stared at a monitor and felt their brain lock up


Why this class exists


Most new nurses do not have a smartness problem. They have a language problem. They can memorize the definition of a late deceleration all day, but the moment the strip changes and the provider answers the phone, their brain locks up and their mouth goes silent.

The D-TAG framework gives you a path. Describe what you see. Trend what is changing. Act within your scope and policy. Give report using SBAR. Once your brain has a path, panic has less room to run the show.


What you'll walk away with


  • The 4-step D-TAG framework — Describe, Trend, Act, Give Report — in your pocket every shift

  • The 5 core features every fetal monitor strip has, in professional language you can defend

  • The 5 trend questions to ask yourself every 15 to 30 minutes

  • Both bedside and professional language for Category I, II, and III tracings

  • A complete SBAR script you can use in under 60 seconds

  • Chartable phrases you can copy, paste, and adapt to your facility's documentation

What is included


  • Live 90-minute virtual class via Zoom with a certified L&D nurse instructor

  • Full class replay inside your private course area (rewatch anytime)

  • Printable Student Workbook with worksheets, case studies, and SBAR scripts
