Thank you so much for this site! It helped me be prepared for the ACLS class today. I was able to answer the questions during the Megacode with confidence today and passed the test! I will definitely recommend this site to other nurses on my unit.
Great information. I just took my ACLS test and passed easily thanks in part to material presented by this site. There were a couple of Maternal resuscitation questions that I was not familiar with and saw nothing on this site about that special situation.
Hi Randall. Thanks for the feedback. I will be adding some practice question about maternal resuscitation in the very near future. Thanks for the suggestion.
Kind regards, Jeff
I think your site is one the best sites I’ve seen, as an ICU rn it was a good site to get the new updates. Thank-you I can’t see anyone failing acls after reviewing with your site.
I’m a new medic preparing for my paramedic practicals this has been an outstanding study source, Thanks!
I just signed up for the 2 week course. This stuff better sink in to my head and fast due to the fact I’m dumber than a rock, just sayin’……..I will let you know the finally results..and thanks for providing a site like this
Just passed the ACLS test this afternoon. The new test is very confusing! This site is a wonderful asset. I really enjoyed using it. I hope I never get the chance to use ACLS since I work in OB. Thanks, Marylou
very nice and also useful for all medical staff
George as a nurse working in endoscopy I sedate many patients on a daily basis and in my twenty
plus years of doing so I rarely have to call on acls skills but it only takes one bad outcome to recognize how valuable those skills are you are putting patients at high risk everytime you sedate
so keep the training to be a safe provider.
Hi Gerald, I agree with you; I am also an Edoscopy nurse, and I always have reversal drugs close at hand because situation can change rapidly. I also pay close attention to the patient (first) as well as the monitor
