Because of you I won't be embarrassed in the ICU because I did not pass my math test and could not give meds. Beyond grateful you make these videos; you have been my companion for the past 12 months and I finally get to take the NCLEX in Spring. THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART!!!!!

    I work in an ICU and I was using her videos back in nursing school. With covid we’ve gotten to the point where we’ve run out of pumps and our hospital has made badge cards that are showing us how to calculate the drip rate of some meds and controlling it with the roller clamp. Thank God we haven’t had to use them yet (at least I haven’t) but I say all this because it’s important to remember the basics! You never know when you’ll have to use it again

    Thank you for the clear explanations. When I was in college, I struggled a lot to understand since the instructors would cram all the calculations into one or two lectures, which made it difficult for me to comprehend. But now, thanks to YOU, I can grasp each equation.

Plan ahead!! I wish i planned much better before starting the whole program and now that im graduating in may i realize that im behind on many notes because of how much time you will NOT have during the program. Wish you the best of the best! 🙂
