Information and point-of-care solutions provider Wolters Kluwer Health has introduced Lippincott's NCLEX-RN PassPoint, powered by PrepUTM. This adaptive learning and exam prep tool for nursing students simulates the National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN®) with comprehensive, adaptive practice exams, and includes access to thousands of pages of evidence-based, clinically oriented content.
Lippincott's PassPoint is built on and expands upon the content and functionality of Lippincott's NCLEX RN 10,000, powered by PrepU, which has been proven to improve classroom performance and optimise students' chances of passing the NCLEX-RN.
Students can use Lippincott's PassPoint to prepare for the NCLEX-RN and make a smooth transition from the classroom to nursing practice. PassPoint offers students practice quizzes that adapt in difficulty and reinforce knowledge of specific components of the nursing curriculum, along with instructor-driven assignments to validate understanding of core content. Students can complete multiple simulated NCLEX-RN tests to gauge their readiness to sit for licensure.
PassPoint helps prepare students to succeed in nursing practice by exposing them to the leading evidence-based content used in over 1,500 healthcare facilities nationwide. PassPoint links directly to content from both Lippincott's Nursing Procedures and Skills, which includes step-by-step instructions for clinical skills competencies, and Lippincott's Nursing Advisor, which provides specific clinical answers synthesised into entries on diseases and conditions, signs and symptoms, diagnostic tests, treatments, and hospital-acquired conditions. Both of these products are trusted and used by thousands of direct care nurses at the bedside to support better patient care through evidence-based practice.
Nursing school faculty can also review student progress on the simulated exam via PassPoint. The PassPoint practice exam simulator will help instructors and students determine knowledge gaps, remediate to rectify challenging areas, and build confidence as the real certification test approaches. Detailed summary reports track students' ongoing performance, helping them evaluate weaknesses and strengths and prioritise areas for deeper study.
