Hey guys, I am a new grad who just started in the icu. I am feeling discouraged because recently my preceptor decided she no longer wanted to work with me. She told the manager that I was not receptive of her teaching. Orientation is 12 weeks long an...

Hello I am graduating from an ADN program next tuesday. I have already submitted everything to the board of nursing, all I have left to do is to graduate and take my NCLEX. I am not going to lie, I don't have any motivation left. I just bought uworld...

Hi guys, well, its finally here. This friday I am taking my last exam for nursing school. It's the HESI. I have been anxious all week. There are days when I get really excited about completing nursing school and moving on with my life and there are d...

Hello, I am in my final semester in nursing school. I just took my third exam yesterday and received a 76%. My spirits are crushed and I'm honestly not motivated anymore. I really need to get motivated again, I hate this feeling of trying to push mys...

This is a two-step ml/hr flow rate problem. I need help please. Medicaton is ordered at the rate of 3mcg/kg/min for an adult weighing 95.9 kg. The solution strength is 400 mg in 250mL D5W. Calculate flow rate to the nearest tenth mL. Is there a form...

Ok, so far I have solved 18 of my 20 math calculation problems. These 2 are similar. 1. An IV infusion time is 13 hr 20 min. What is its completion time if it was started at 10:45 a.m.? 2. A 20gtt/mL set is used for a restart of 750ml of D5W at 3:03 ...

I solved it and did the the other problems that were similar. 287.7 mcg X 1 MG/400 MG X 250ML/400 MG X 60/1 hour =4315500/400000=10.78 Now, I'm stuck on another problem. lol But thank you for your help with this.

400,000/250=1600

Well we have 400 mg if we convert to mcg we have 400,000 mcg

The total mcg in 250 ml is 250,000mcg. I divided 250/0.001

There was this formula that I saw online (ATI website): (dose/kg/time) (time converted to hourly) (weight in kg)/ (drug concentration per ml) I started plugging the numbers in according to the formula. (3mcg/kg/min) (95.9 kg)/250 ml. My hunch is I ha...

I know that uworld is geared toward the NCLEX but I am really desperate as to finding the best resource to passing the hesi exam. I heard that UWORLD is the best resource for NCLEX and i was thinking of using it for the HESI. The resources i have so...

Well.. just took my ob/peds hesi. I scored a 1023 which converts to 93% in the hesi world. I am now a senior nursing student. I used hurst, hesi comprehensive book/questions, and saunders to study. This was a class that I was reepeating because I fai...

our school have hesi exam each semester. This is considered our final exam for the semester. So since I was taking OB/peds I had a OB/peds hesi. In our final semester we will have a cumulative hesi this is everything we have learned from the beginnin...

Well, I cannot believe we are here again. After having to retake this semester due to not passing my hesi last semester I get another chance to redeem myself. I cannot believed I endured 6 WHOLE months of repeating, what seemed like my life again not...

well... just got done taking my ob/ped hesi. Happy to say that I am a senior nursing student. I received a score of 1023 which converts to 93% in the hesi world. I am a senior nursing student!!! Bitter sweet moment, knowing that if I hadn't failed I ...

You really have to develop a backbone to pursue a nursing career. Do you know how many people will try to discourage you? a lot. If it's what you really want keep at it raise your gpa, go to another school. Look, it's not going to be easy you are goi...

Thank you so much! I struggle with the hesi every semester and I failed OB/PEDS due to receiving a low score on my hesi. I actually just made a post asking if I should use uworld to study for my hesi exit, since I heard it's really good for the nclex...

Hi guys. I am writing this because lately I have been feeling very discouraged. I am currently and LPN, been an LPN for 2 years but mostly work home health. I am in an LPN-RN program but failed last semester. I am retaking the class over now. I am di...

Can you tell me what study guide you used. I'm retaking OB and peds right now due to failing hesi. I have the hesi book and will be using this and I've done a lot of questions and read rationales from Saunders book/cd. I plan on doing hesi case stud...

How are you studying? Maybe we can offer advice from there.

Not really. I would prefer my future husband to be a firefighter. Lol. being honest :)

I would say. Don't give up. I failed out of nursing school too. In fact, I'm repeating the semester now. I am 3 weeks in. Do I understand the material? Well, I think I do. So, why did I fail? My school makes us take a hesi exam and I did not score we...
