In the first section of HESI Admission Assessment Exam Review four (HESI 4) I review the key concepts. These include Nursing theory, nursing education and nursing practice. I then compare these topics with concepts from other nursing schools. I use graphs and interactive learning activities to support my comparisons. I explain each concept in simple English.
In the second section of HESI 4 review I perform a practice clinical examination. I ask nursing students to complete a similar exam to the actual one. I then record their performance and compare it with what they have done in class.
In HESI 4 review I assess the conceptual skills required for nursing admissions. I use a variety of graphics to reinforce the main points. I demonstrate some sample questions and use graphs to support my claims. I then discuss each topic in detail and give tips on how to best prepare for the exam. I recommend taking a full day to go over each chapter and practice answering the sample questions.
In HESI 5 review I compare the practical application skills with those from previous nursing classes. I review relevant literature and show how the concepts are applied in real life situations. I examine practice exam questions and describe their format and use the appropriate graphics. I also review and discuss any areas of difficulty in relation to the textbook content.
The final part of HESI 5 review deals with the nursing ethics and principles. This section requires the student to demonstrate good decision making and logical reasoning skills. I record the answers and then analyze the reasoning. I explain that the logical reasoning portion of the exam is only effective when a person is trained to apply critical thinking. I review and explain topics such as cultural diversity, cultural awareness, personal hygiene and wound care.
