    Pearson Vue accuracy help!!!!!!

    Nalon1 RN/EMT-P replied to Hm44's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs

    Three sets of vitals in a 12-hour shift?

    Nalon1 RN/EMT-P replied to SavingGrace007's topic in Patient Care Technician, Assistants

    So you will be taking vitals at 10:30, 2:30 and 6:30? Ask if the times can be changed to what others have said they do, 8, 12 and 4. This makes it much more practical and allows you to get off when...
