In this show, Maureen Osuna, MSN, RN (Nurse Mo) breaks down a wide range of nursing school concepts so they’re easy to understand. Each episode aims to help nursing students improve their study techniques, pass nursing school exams, and feel more confident in clinical. If you’re nervous about nursing school, not “getting it” in lecture, or feeling overwhelmed with all the information you have to learn, this podcast will help you optimize your study time so you can learn more with less stress. While nursing school is challenging, it doesn’t have to be impossible. When concepts are explained in a way that “just makes sense”, nursing students have better recall on exams, feel more confident working with patients in clinical, and are better prepared for NCLEX. Nurse Mo understands the struggles nursing students face and draws on more than 11 years of clinical experience to make nursing school less intimidating. Each episode removes the “fluff” and focuses on the key things a nursing student (and nurse) needs to know about a variety of disease conditions. The show also provides tips for succeeding in nursing school, guidance for students and new nurses, and insider information to help you excel at the bedside.2021-2024 Enfermedades Físicas Higiene y Vida Saludable

I started listening to the Straight A Nursing podcast immediately after I was accepted into nursing school. I listened to old episodes all summer and I was HOOKED. I strongly believe that Nurse Mo helped me be as successful as I was! I just found out today that I passed NCLEX on my first try and I can’t help but think that the foundation built before starting hectic nursing school came from Nurse Mo’s podcasts. 10/10 recommend these podcasts! Thank you so much for creating such awesome content!

Good info for nursing students, easy to digest and sort through topics. I listen to it on my way to clinicals or when I'm walking the dog.
