Pro Calc (dosage calc software)...where can I get it?

[SoulShine75]

At school we practice our math calculations on a program/software called pro calc. I was wondering if anyone knew where I could find this so I could practice from home? I've looked online with no luck. If not this particular one, do you know of others I could practice on?

Thanks in advance

There're some websites that have what I believe you're looking for and are free to use.

Check out:

http://www.maagnursing.com/MedCal/module1_1.php - starts with a review and then goes into practice problems.

http://www.accd.edu/sac/nursing/math/default.html - tutorials and quizzes.

Calculate with Confidence is a great tool. The CD walks you through the various methods of dosage calculations so you can figure out which suits you best. I go with dimensional analysis. It's great, no formulas to remember.

My school uses ProCalc also. We go to http://www.softwarefornurses.com This requires an institution code that you should be able to get from your school. It has practice tests that we can take before we go in to take our "live" test. Hope this helps. We have a nursing IT person that we get our codes from.
