Abstract
AimRemediation is used by nursing programs to promote success on the National Council Licensure Examination for Registered Nurses (NCLEX-RN). Evidence related to distance learning as a strategy for NCLEX-RN remediation is non-existent. The aim of this paper is to report the results of a remediation course converted to a virtual format from a traditional format due to the COVID-19 pandemic. MethodUsing an on-line meeting platform, at-risk students enrolled in a pre-licensure nursing program in the Midwest, United States, actively participated in a remediation course. Students met as a group and answered NCLEX-RN questions. The on-line platform allowed discussion among the instructor and students that promoted critical thinking related to nursing content and test-taking strategies. Students were also encouraged to complete NCLEX-RN questions outside of meeting times. ResultsStudents voiced satisfaction with the method of course delivery and felt the course increased their knowledge and confidence in answering questions. The NCLEX-RN pass rate for remediating students was 77.8%. ConclusionA remediation course offered through distance learning proved to be effective in promoting NCLEX-RN success among at-risk students.
