Passed NCLEX with NGN in 85 questions. Cathy & Maris were a huge help through my entire journey. The complete flashcard set was def. one of the best investments I made, others jumped on them too once they saw mine. Just wanted to say thanks again helping so many people, like myself.

Hi Cathy!! First I want to thank you greatly for all of your videos!! You have saved me this semester, I just discovered you a couple of months ag0; I am in my 3rd semester. I am just so greatly for you!!!! :-) Secondly, I had a hint for remembering Buprenorphine and methadone. So for Buprenorphine - I use the trick Bupre-"no"-phine - like "no" more morphine. and for Methadone I use the trick "metha-don't" - since it helps with withdrawal. 🙂 Thank you again for everything !

Hi nurse Cathy. I am a little confused since you said that Disulfiram is not used for alcohol withdrawal. Is Disulfiram not given as a maintenance medication for alcohol withdrawal then? or is it?

[@LevelUpRN]

It’s given to help people abstain from alcohol (longer term), but isn’t used to treat acute withdrawal from alcohol. Does that make sense?

@@LevelUpRN Yes! Thank you!

Did you ever get a chance to take the old NCLEX if you did how would you compare it to new gen? Congratulations 🎉🍾

[@nicholas672]

I never took the old one. I would say the partial credit on this one helps us a lot! And honestly the NGN stuff isn’t that bad. Even if the first part of an NGN trips you up, you can make up points in the rest of it. Personally, I’d rather take this one with chance for partial credit than the old version.

Hi there! I'd be inclined to agree with the previous commenter. I've been teaching in a BSN program for eight years and I think the case studies are actually going to make the new exam more approachable to a wider variety of test-takers. The partial scoring is also very exciting. - Ellis

Me and my friends used to”DAN the alcoholic” to remember the drugs for alcohol addiction maintenance.

[@zerogeass21]

those opioid use disorders drugs basically cause the same side effects of actual opioids. how does it actually help?

[@kensredemption]

Cause the same symptoms with none of the addictive elements, thus helping the pt wean off opiates
