Chapter 1Why I Wrote This Book
There’s a lot to learn while you are in nurse practitioner school. Because of the timepressure, I really appreciated anything that would help me get through school. I’vealways been a visual learner, and it is easy for me to pick up information if I draw outpictures or play with words to make learning a complex issue easier. I loved usingmnemonics when I was in nursing school, and that continued when I went to graduateschool for my Family Nurse Practitioner degree.
I found it was easy for me to remember silly sayings during the test that would remindme of the right answer. Turns out, many other people like mnemonics too! I decidedto write a book specifically for the Nurse Practitioner field. Pharmacology Mnemonicsfor the Nurse Practitioner is a general guide to pharmacology, meaning it will helpyou no matter your specialty. It is a bit of a cross between what you would expectfrom a book for nurses and one geared toward physicians.
Use this book as a guide to memorize common concepts and as a refresher for onesyou haven't used in a while. Even when you are out of school and in practice, it issometimes difficult to remember a concept you haven't used since the final exam. Thisis normal and happens to nurse practitioners and physicians alike. I still use sillymnemonics to remember things like the cranial nerves “On Old Olympus ToweringTops A Fin And German Viewed Some Hops,” anyone?
Use this book while you are in school and as a refresher when you finish. I’veincluded extras for Nurse Practitioners like common pharmacological abbreviations,medication classifications, and medication antidotes. Have fun, learn, and enjoy!
