NG Tube Insertion and Placement Verification
Passing the tube is the easy part. The harm happens in the ninety seconds afterwards, when somebody decides it is in the stomach on evidence that never proved anything.
- The five things that are not confirmation, and never were
- Capped at six, two stations, three attempts each
- The validation checklist published in full, before you pay
- Any single failure after insertion is a fail

Clinical calculation
IV Flow Rate and Drip Rate Calculation
The formula is free everywhere and we give it away too. What you pay for is executing it on a set whose drop factor you have not checked, against a clock.
- gtt/min and mL/hr, derived rather than memorised
- The four shortcuts, and when they give a confidently wrong answer
- Real tubing at 10, 15, 20 and 60 gtt/mL
- Six of six correct, then set it and count it

IV Therapy Fundamentals
Peripheral IV insertion taught where the failures actually happen, which is almost always before the needle touches skin.
- Every part of the catheter and what it is for
- Choosing a vein deliberately, and justifying it
- The longest block is supervised practice
- Infiltration, extravasation, phlebitis, hematoma

Building Clinical Autonomy
The skills that stop a shift depending on somebody else being free, and the line between independence and working beyond scope.
- Sorting a decision into yours, shared, or not yours
- Arriving at a call already holding what will be asked for
- Escalating with an ask, not a worry
- Asking well when the unit makes asking costly

Evidence appraisal
Vitamin D, Mood and Performance
Deficiency in shift workers is real. The link to depression is not settled, and this session is honest about which is which.
- Why night and indoor work reduce synthesis
- Association against cause, read from the actual trials
- Why the same result reads normal or low under different guidance
- What to say when a colleague asks, without overstating it

Workforce wellbeing
Self-Care and Work Home Balance
Not a wellness talk. Four hours separating the load a nurse can actually shift from the load only staffing can shift.
- The four states that all get called "tired"
- Recovery built around a rotating roster, not a fixed week
- Declining a shift as a sentence you have practised
- Raising workload as a safety issue rather than a complaint

Patient safety
Recognizing Patient Deterioration
Single vital signs lie and trends tell the truth. Noticing early is half of it. Being heard when you do is the other half.
- Why respiratory rate warns first and is recorded least
- What early warning scores can and cannot do
- Escalation as a harder skill than recognition
- Speaking up when somebody senior disagrees

Medication safety
Medication Safety and Dosage Calculation
Most medication error is a systems failure wearing a nurse's name badge. This covers the arithmetic and the conditions that defeat good nurses.
- One calculation method, practiced until automatic
- Decimal and unit errors, the largest in magnitude
- High alert medications and independent double checks
- Protecting the medication pass from interruption

Exam preparation
NCLEX Clinical Judgment Intensive
The Next Generation NCLEX measures how you think, not what you memorised. Candidates who know the content still fail on judgement.
- The six cognitive steps, taught as a method
- Reading a stem and separating cue from noise
- Prioritization questions are instability questions
- Reviewing practice by rationale, not by score

New Graduate Transition to Practice
The gap between passing NCLEX and surviving a twelve hour shift is not knowledge. It is prioritization, delegation and knowing when to speak.
- The first hour that decides the rest of the shift
- Delegation done properly, and what cannot be delegated
- Handover that transfers responsibility, not just facts
- Unsafe assignments and the formal routes in Texas

Assessment skills
Head to Toe Physical Assessment
A systematic examination you can actually finish on a real shift, in an order that survives being interrupted halfway through.
- Why a fixed sequence beats a remembered checklist
- Focused versus full, and choosing correctly
- Sequencing around the patient, not around the form
- Describing a finding rather than naming a diagnosis

Wound Care and Pressure Injury Prevention
Stage what you see against the NPIAP system rather than by eye, score risk with a structured tool, and build the prevention bundle a facility expects.
- NPIAP staging, including the ones people get wrong
- Pressure injury versus moisture-associated damage
- Turning a risk score into named actions
- Recognizing when a wound is more than a wound
NursesTelemetry & step-down4 hours
Clinical skills
ECG and Dysrhythmia Recognition
Read a rhythm strip the same way every time, name the common rhythms, tell artifact from a real change, and know what your unit expects you to escalate.
- A systematic method: rate, rhythm, P, PR, QRS
- The common atrial, block and ventricular rhythms
- The ventricular rhythms that cannot wait
- Recognition only: not ACLS, not treatment
Three ways to take any of these
The same course, delivered to suit whoever is paying for it.
One session, from $49
Book a single course as a small group session with a nurse educator. Pay per person. Courses that consume equipment per learner, or that hold a place at a supervised station, are priced above the base rate and say so on their own page.
Four session block, $165
Any four sessions at the $49 rate over four weeks, saving $31 against booking singly, with portal access throughout.
Your facility, from $1,500
Delivered to your own cohort, on your schedule, built around your competencies and quoted per cohort.
Every course is taught against published standards from bodies including the American Nurses Association, The Joint Commission, the CDC, the Institute for Safe Medication Practices, the Infusion Nurses Society and NCSBN, each named on the course page so you can check the source. Where a facility's own protocol differs from anything taught, the facility's protocol governs.
We do not award continuing education contact hours unless your facility arranges them separately, and we do not sell certificates. What you get is an assessment of whether you can do the thing.
