Hi Ruth,
Do you really mean 3 hours? You are not going to accomplish much in that
time.
In any event, the book Elementary Statistics by Mario Triola (Addison
Wesley) has some very
nice health related examples involving temperature, weight, cholesterol and
so on. The book itself
is meant for a broad audience; not just nurses. However, his problems are
excellent.
Good luck.

Does anybody else teach statistics to nurses? Currently I am being given 3
hours to teach descriptive and inferencial statistics a to very unwilling
students and wondered if any one else had similar problems.
