- Do nurses really need to know dosage calculations (nursing math) for the job? Why do nursing students even learn dosage calculations in nursing school?
In this video, Nurse Sarah explains why nurses need to know how to calculate dosages on the job.
Dosage calculations can be intimidating to many nursing students, especially if you dislike math or struggle with math problems.

One year after nursing school I have to say ABSOLUTELY you will need to know dosages.
Also , can you please do a video about the nursing pathways after Associate Degree RN? It will be so much appreciated…
This is so true I’m a new grade, and I can confirm that you will use dosage cal. My new job had an exam that you had to receive a 95% to proceed through the interview process. I even had to do calculations just last week to ensure the proper administration of IVIG which has to be programmed manually; pharmacy only provided the starting rate, the weight and policy admin instructions. Dosage cal is a great way to ensure that what it’s says and what you’re giving is accurate.
Thank you, Sarah... as some out in the field as a specialty visiting nurse, we do use dosage calculation on a regular basis. It might be a family member asking what 0.25 ml of Lorazepam intensol at 2 mg/ml means for an equivalent pill form or writing a recommendation to a provider.
nice video, tomorrow I'm working my first shift as an actual RN, nervous but excited
Congratulations!!
You got this!
Good luck!
I’m sure you’ll kick some butt tomorrow & here’s to a smooth first shift!
The video of the Deltoid Muscle Injection was sooo helpful!!! Thank you so much!!! I have to give my husband injections, and you explained it perfectly and now im more confident. The comments on that video is off, so I had to comment on this video. I will subscribe and recommend.
I am new to canada and i decided to study nursing .i have an academic background in engineering. Dosage calculations part of nursing is very easy for me. However,i failed from my first clinical because of not respecting client's confidentiality. I put the client's last name on a pathology card. Canada needs practical minds ,unfortunately i am not very good at visual and fast learning.
@RegisteredNurseRN I’d love to know your thoughts about nurse residencies & if you know of anyone that has done them and their thoughts. Thanks! LOVE your vids! They are a MASSIVE HELP during school😊
Please make a video featuring Nurses in the military. Like US AirForce RN, US Navy RN, US Army RN….
Thank you so much for your help!!
Thank you
I’ve used it a couple times when the hospital goes cheap and they’re mixing their stuff in-house and suddenly the concentration numbers are not the same they used to be in the older bags.
2 Million Very Soon...Congo in Advance Serah...🙏🙏🙏
Can you please do a video on Total parenteral nutrition?
thanks, i'm not a nurse but this sounds similar to knowing dosages of herbs in a formula
Hey Sarah... I wanna know about NPCC .. in detail.... could u pls explain ...
Emeğine yüreğine sağlık süper 💯
Dear Nurse Sarah. This might not be related to this video, but have a question about the accelerated RN to MSN program. Is it worth skipping the BSN program ? Also, is it necessary to get the BSN first before getting an RN degree? Thank you
You don't need a Bachelor's to be a Registered Nurse. I'm an RN with an Associate's Degree. What makes you an RN is passing the NLCEX, which earns you your nursing license. Every RN to MSN program gives you your BSN in the process of earning your MSN. You're earning both at the same time. It's accelerated.
@@casenace6091 just to add onto this - my direct entry MSN did not grant a BSN on the way. If you are considering direct entry, please ask this question directly and ensure you know the answer before choosing the program. Best of luck!
@@casenace6091 thank you so much . I didn’t know that
@@Livontheg0 thank you. But I have a question about that . The direct MSN after RN … how long did it take?

Hey, Sarah, RN
Are dosage calculations on the NCLEX?
Yes.
I love your accent
📌📌🤗🤗
The doctor should simplify the dosage as easy as possible. Nurses these days and future very busy and potential to make mistakes which could cost lives. Doctors on big bucks should do that extra step. They are so called academics. So it's easy for them.
Perseverance and Practice is key , it will become easier. Love that 🤍TY
