Passing Calculations Tests for Nursing Students

Getting medicines calculations right is often a matter of life and death. Nursing students 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 first time in medicines calculations tests, and get calculations right in practice. It takes the fear out of maths, even for those who find it a struggle, through clear step-by-step explanations and lively examples. It is linked directly to the NMC competencies, so students understand what is required for progression.
