Nurse Badge Reference Cards PDF | Printable Badge Reel Cards | Lab Values, ABG, Vital Signs | Nursing Student Cheat Sheet

The numbers you look up on every shift, clipped right behind your badge.

These badge reference cards put normal values, scales and formulas on 18 double-sided cards, each the size of a credit card. I'm Anna, RN, BSN, PHN, a nurse educator and former nursing instructor. I've been helping nursing students and new nurses through NurseStudy.Net since 2012. I picked the facts students and new grads look up most in clinical and wrote them in plain words, with a nursing action wherever it matters.
