If you're going to one of the Inova hospitals (combining threads here) thier BKAT is worse than the one I took in Cincinnati. Orientation is kinda rough there but thorough. I am just finishing an assignment at Inova Alexandria but all the Inova system travelers orient together.

It may be similiar to the PBDS (Performance Based Development Skills). Here is a link on information for that test:

Client Testing PBDS

I have heard that the BKAT is admininstered to any Nurse Specialty within the Inova System (except for ER). They also test for Drug information with a Study Guide available. The test is quite old so be sure to Study for it as the information may not be that familiar. Also, know your lab values.

I hope that helps.
