Anyone has used PCCN review books/CDs/software?

Published

I'm planning to take PCCN this year and I am really broke right now. I wonder if anyone has any used PCCN review books, CDs, software, or material from PCCN review classes? I'm taking this class for my clinical ladder at my job.

Thanks!

I got a book and CD's from the hospital medical library to use for free. Saved me a few hundred dollars I didn't have.

I feel your pain. I'm in the same boat.

Is anyone else at work planning on taking their PCCN? Perhaps y'all could pool together your resources and chip in. Or talk with your hospital's education department - they might have PCCN study materials available for you to use.

Hi TurnforthenurseRN,

I did check my hospital library. They didn't have anything for any tests :(, just medical journals and magazine and books. No one I know is taking the PCCN either, because we don't get a raise at our hospital for being certified. I can't find any used David Woodruff CDs. So many posts on here say that these CD's are good, yet they are so hard to find used. What do people do with the CDs after they paased the test?

I have used David woodruff CDs as well as the AACN CDs as well. However the blue print did change since I took my exam not by much. I think a few disorders were added and a couple taken out!! Anyone interested PM me!!

Hi Nicolein,

Thanks for your answer. I am interested but cannot PM you because I don't have enough posts yet. Can you write me. Annatuesdays at yahoo. Anything would help. I assume you passed. Congratulations, Nicolein, PCCN.

Search CCRN on iTunes. There should be free podcasts by Cammy House-Francher from her CCRN series. I know some of it is more in-depth than what we need to know for the PCCN but overall it's a good review, and it's FREE! The only downside is it's all audio and no visuals or supplemental notes.
