Below are the steps I followed to find the 3 OERs I selected.

First repository: Ecampus https://search.ecampusontario.ca/ 

1. 1. Search 1: search words were ‘palliative care’ and I did end up finding a textbook immediately. 
      • OER 1: https://ecampusontario.pressbooks.pub/nursingcare/ (textbook)
   2. Search 2: search words were end-of-life, which didn’t yield any relevant results. Then I narrow my search choosing to filter by item type and there were still no useful results.
   3. Search 3: search words were changed to ‘hospice’ and I stumbled on a course that could be helpful.
      • OER 2: https://ecampusontario.pressbooks.pub/deathanddyingvls1/ (course)

Second repository: Youtube https://www.youtube.com/ 

1. 1. Search 1: search words were “tedtalks + palliative care”, which yielded too many results. Results: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=tedtalks+%2B+palliative+care
   2. Search 2: I added ‘nursing’ to the previous search words and narrowed down the video suggestions. Results: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=tedtalks+%2B+palliative+care+%2B+nursing 
      1. OER 3: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EtdU928Pjtw (video)
