Medical/Surgical (or what us pros call Med Surg) is the foundation of nursing school and a main theme in the NCLEX®. That’s why Picmonic includes Med Surg topics and Med Surg flashcards. It is usually one of the first clinicals where nursing students get to actually DO things, and boy are you ready! Aren’t you?
- You’re armed with freshly cleaned scrubs, shiny new stethoscopes, and a plethora of pens (pen thefts are a real travesty in the hospital)
- You have mastered med making, taking vital signs, and of course, can assess your patients from the hair on their head to their tippy toes.
- You’ve learned new skills sets like placing tubes in nearly every hole of the body.
- And maybe you’ve even started to put together your own NCLEX® study tips!
After practicing all of this endless times at school and on anyone who will be your fake patient, you are ready! The world must prepare for the next generation of nurses (cue the applause!).
Picmonic is Behind You 100%
With the excitement of having real patients comes great opportunity for learning and also great responsibility. With Picmonic by your side, you will feel confident and ready to tackle your Med Surg clinical rotation. Whether you didn’t fully understand the text book, the power point lecture, or endless Google searches on a particular topic, Picmonic has study flashcards that will help you! Check out our flash cards on major Meg Surg topics. At your own pace you can catch up or get ahead on various subjects in your nursing program including Med Surg. The cards are also helpful when it’s time to take and pass the NCLEX®! If you don’t see cards on topic, just ask!
