Passing Calculations Tests for Nursing Students

by Susan Starkings, Larry Krause

Getting medicine calculations right is a matter of life and death. Nursing students in the UK must pass calculations tests at the end of their first year, and often prior to entry onto a nursing course, to ensure they are competent in this crucial skill. This book helps new nursing students succeed in medicines calculations. It takes the fear out of mathematics, even for those who find it a struggle, through clear step-by-step explanations and lively examples. It is linked directly to the UK's Nursing and Midwifery Council competencies, so students understand what is required for progression.
