Hello, I just accepted a new travel position in the ER at Parkland in Dallas, TX. I have been traveling for over two years and been an ER nurse for 5 years.
I am posting because apparently the first day of our orientation we have to take three exams, a 75 question ER exam from basic knowledge to trauma, etc. a 45 ekg and cardiac exam, and a medication calculations exam. The only problem is the only study materials they provided were a list of discussion questions. I'm waiting to hear back from my agency who contacted them for any practice material.
I was wondering have any recent travelers taken this exam? How was it? Did the hospital supply you with good study material? I'd love any advice I can get to study the right type of material. Because these discussion questions I got are very broad topics, I'm not even sure if the test is multiple choice.
Any advice about how you prepared for the exam, the difficulty, did most travelers pass or do you have to remediate? Thanks in advance!
