I recently posted a comment and link on standardized testing and the topic of practice readiness arose! I suspected it would and sure enough it made it into my DMs and the comments in the post. So I want to put this question out there… WHY do we continue to call it a practice gap and insist on practice ready nurses when we should be looking at the transition from academia to service as part of a continuum? Here is a reality check for all the service lines… as long as we continue the current model of nursing education with faster turnarounds to push out licensed nurses the schools and as long as schools are ranked and scrutinized based on NCLEX pass rates, guess what…. they are going to teach, concentrate, and produce nurses that can successfully pass the NCLEX! I don’t care how many competency requirements you push out through an accrediting body that accredits “some” schools of nursing! Siloed changes in the profession set by the few that do not represent the profession as a whole only cause further confusion, disparity, and continue to produce nurses that leave the profession!

Why is no one talking about the fact that we don’t encourage nursing students to study for the NCLEX exam? Take a look at the blog I wrote on my NCLEX tutoring site. Let’s see things through a different lens as educators, nurses, & nursing students! #nclex #nursingstudents

Watch me on UWorld for test taking tips on physiological integrity! Tip #1 - if it’s an NCLEX question related to a procedure learned in nursing school, visualize the procedure. What are the steps for urinary catheterization? Use this process to narrow it down the right answer! Tip #2 - if the NCLEX question asks what would you as the nurse do FIRST? If there’s only one thing you can do for the client, what’s the most important thing you could do? Tip #3 - if the NCLEX question ask what’s the PRIORITY as the nurse, use ABC’s airway, breathing, circulation to answer the question correctly.

Effectiveness of Problem-Based Learning on Development of Nursing Students' Critical Thinking Skills: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis Interesting.

How do nursing students get accomodations for the NCLEX exam? Why don’t more students ask for testing accomodations on the NCLEX exam? Most nursing students think the process is too difficult. In order to apply for accommodations on the NCLEX exam, nursing students need to contact their NRB (nursing regulatory body) a.k.a. their state BON. Nursing students should include a letter written by themselves explaining the need for an accommodation, followed by a letter from the physician with an official diagnosis, and documentation from the disability office if these services were used in nursing school. Accommodations may include: extra time allowed, a private room to rest in, or a reader. Hit the follow button for more NGN/nursing school tips/tricks!
