ATI skills module

Published

My school uses these and I am finding them very annoying and frustrating. The material they test on does not get covered well in their lessons. I'm not sure how to study for the tests on these skills when their lessons are missing so many details and the info doesn't always coordinate with the skills book our school uses. Wondering if there is some trick to this. Does anyone know of any books or material that covers ATI's skills modules?

OH, ATI ... got to love it! I recently graduated, and my school used ATI books as well. They suck, everybody hates them, bla bla bla... My best advice to you is to read the books on each area you are assigned (aka- cardiovascular- read cardiovascular in the ATI). These will not only help you prepare for end of semester cumulative tests, but ATI most importantly helps you with NCLEX. When I graduated I used the NCLEX ATI book to help me study (along with answering over 2,000 questions on a prepu site) and I was out in 45 minutes and only 75 questions- easy pass. ATI is annoying, but apparently it works (just get familiar with the book layout, and suffer through the stupid online tutorials).

Okay, that's the thing. I do not have a book. I do not know which book to get. This class is Intro to nursing so the skills modules are all vital signs, ambulation, hygiene, those kind of topics. A book was not recommended for this just the skills modules. I would gladly buy a book to help, but was not sure what book to get for intro to nursing.

Welp, I think I found my own answer. I sure wish someone would have told me there was an ebook available to me within the ATI login. I found the Fundamentals of Nursing ebook there and well, let's just say that would have surely helped! All the questions I got stuck on in the skills module were covered within this ebook. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
