Understanding Pharmacology essentials is such an important component in nursing school as medication management is critical in caring for a patient!
Although pharmacology sometimes feels overwhelming….don’t worry, our pharmacology course provides you with videos, audio, handouts, and pharmacology study guides to meet all learning styles!
Start with Module 1 and work your way through the course. When you are studying a specific medication go directly to the mp3 for that med. If you are covering a class of medications, watch the lecture over that class. Soon, as you work through the modules you will find that pharmacology is becoming second nature.
With each lecture you are provided material for download, by downloading the information you will be able to study at any time and on any device. Feel free to stop a lecture without worry as each lecture and video will pick up right where you left off! Don’t forget to take a look at the freebies which are mentioned throughout the course in the last module!
