    Has anyone taken NCLEX recently? 2014

    I also used 100% of Kaplan and my overall score was 67%. Kaplan helped me a little bit. They provided me with tons of passing level questions which helped me use my critical thinking. Those questions helped me pass nclex as most of the questions I go...

    Questions about NCLEx-RN 2014 (kaplan users) PLEASE HELP!

    Also, there is a really good study guide someone posted in a separate thread. It's 35 pages and just skimming it twice saved me so many times on the nclex, especially on isolation precaution questions. :)

    D/Cing an IV

    Use alcohol swabs to remove the tape. Lift a corner of the tape and start swabbing between the tape and patient's skin. You'll notice the tape will come off easier and the patient won't be in pain.
