8 of 25Doesn’t work the best on iPads, can’t use it in Split View because you are unable to use your favorites tab and other features while in Split View. So makes it difficult for those who take notes on the same device they study from.
Nursing Central is amazing! I used it daily in my practice
Perfect from new grads to seasoned nurses
As a nursing student that had been through an LPN program without Nursing Central, and is now using Nursing Central in an ADN program, I can say that this program is incredible. This gives you, not only understandable knowledge, but the confidence and peace of mind knowing that it is scholarly/peer reviewed content. Not to mention, easy to navigate, helpful with tools like notecards and a work cited generator. Unbelievable. This program will be so integral for my nursing education.
Nursing Central is what has carried me through Nursing school. I don’t know what I would do without it!!!!
Love this app. Use it almost every shift.
Was provided to our class in nursing school. After 4-5 years of using it, it shuts off unless you pay an annual subscription
Renewed my subscription app says outdated, attempts to update unsuccessful
