I’m studying to be a Pharmacy Technician and currently we are learning drip rates!! Yuck! Learning this has been extremely difficult. I was even thinking that it wasn’t for me. I’ve been at least 3 hours trying to figure out and make sense of IV rate. I’m so happy I google and came across your video! Hallelujah!!! I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your teaching. Your instructions are clear and a great help! Thank you! Thank you! 🤗🙂

Thank you for this video! I decided to go into nursing after being in customer service and accounting after 30 years…. Nursing calculations are not the same as accounting. I’ve been on the verge of tears. This makes me feel like maybe I will catch on.

Goodness started nursing school 4 years ago and got sick had to take off but my school left out all ur clues, I was like a duh and trying to keep up and figure things out, felt like I was left behind !! Watched all sorts of videos to help but had no idea where to find info specially care plans and gee we had that book and was never told to use it, no one had it out for heavens sakes I'd sit and cry ! Ur amazing and can't thanku enough, trying to jump ahead on sims also for when I start back to finish at 50 years old ! Ughh
I don't like going in sims thrown in with no heads up of what is what !! Thanku for clearing up un- answered questions to emabarresed to ask ! Have to finish this, just have to, passed my classes and hesi exams with high scores, will be jumping back in with med surg 1 🥺😀

Thanks so much this was so easy ☺️. I am so grateful I came across your videos. I guarantee everyone who watches your videos will get at least a 90 on the exam .

[jadedeyes]

Perfect! I was going to comment on the rounding... you can't have a "partial drop" which is why we round up or down. Thanks! You are awesome!

You are the gift of the world. You are born for a reason.Thank you

I must say that I love your explanations on how to solve the problems. I am preparing for my PTCB exam for pharmacy technician and you made it so easy for me to understand it. If possible please do more IV and hospital pharmacy.
