FAQs

Medical–Surgical Nursing, also called “Med–Surg,” is typically a two-semester course with a clinical component. The course breaks down the body into systems, such as cardiovascular or gastrointestinal, and reviews disease processes concepts related to patient care.

Medical–surgical nurses are RNs who work in medical and surgical hospital units. They have a very wide range or responsibilities caring for patients being treated for various medical conditions or recovering from surgery. 

The best way to succeed in your Med–Surg class is to combine different learning modalities:
First, deep-dive into the topics with video lessons and master the key concepts with Lecturio’s concise cheat sheets.
Next, apply what you’ve learned to practical situations by answering clinical case questions in the Qbank.
Lastly, make sure you retain information long-term by regularly reviewing your knowledge with Spaced-Repetition quizzes.

Follow the study tips and try to practice lots of NCLEX®-style questions. In med–surg, you’ll be learning how to think like a nurse and how to apply your theoretical knowledge. Some professors will give you a study guide that covers important key concepts that will be on the exam. Do not ignore this information!

The nursing course medical–surgical is one of the first classes that nursing students encounter that requires them to apply everything they’ve learned in pharmacology, pathophysiology, and health assessment together. In addition, medical–surgical exams contain critical-thinking and NCLEX®-style questions. Therefore, just memorizing is not enough anymore: med–surg requires the student to fully understand the material.

Lecturio’s Med–Surg Nursing course prepares you for medical–surgical with numerous learning videos, Spaced-Repetition quizzes and concise cheat sheets. All of your educators have practical clinical experience and explain even difficult topics understandably.
Answering the NCLEX®-style questions prepares you to ace your exams from the start.
