This project analyzed six videos from the "National Nursing English Music Videos (MVs) Competition in Taiwan" to identify key characteristics of optimal nurse-patient role-play videos. Nursing English teachers emphasized factors like vividness, linguistic fluency, humor, teaching tools, N-P interaction, dramatic effect, gender balance, and empathy. Nursing experts identified additional factors including physical assessment, nursing diagnosis, nursing procedures, nursing plan, and nursing evaluation as crucial. The study aimed to serve as a reference for nursing students creating professional nursing English videos, provide guidance for nursing English teachers supporting video production, and offer insights for nursing English for General Purposes (EGP) teachers enhancing teaching materials, particularly in terms of authenticity.
