Magdalene
Registered nurse, ready to help!
I graduated just over a year ago and passed the NCLEX in 75 questions on my first go-a-round. For the past year I've been working in long-term care/hospice and I'm earning my wound care certification. I'd be happy to help you get ready for this exam, or help you through classes you're struggling with. In my experience, the most valuable tools for learning nursing content are practice questions, and case studies. I have both on board to share with you. I use Lippincott source material (same...
