Program Success Story

How One Educator Reduced Freshman Attrition by 70% with Think Like a Nurse workbooks

“I’ve been using KeithRN’s Think Like a Nurse series from day one with my BSN students, and the impact has been transformational.

Volume I: Laying the Foundation for Professional Practice is now the cornerstone of my fundamentals course, helping students transition into nursing with confidence. Since implementing it, our freshman attrition rate dropped from nearly 50% to less than 15%. That’s not just a win, it’s proof of how foundational this series is to student success.

Volumes II: Building the Knowledge Base for Professional Practice and Volume III: Developing Clinical Judgment for Professional Practice continue that transformation — guiding students from knowledge to practice with clarity, structure, and purpose. KeithRN has brought professionalism, compassion, and clinical judgment back to the bedside.”
