Books on the HESI Admission Assessment Exam

In order to be selected for the Nursing program at HCU incoming students must score at least 75 or higher on the HESI Admission Assessment Exam in three categories: grammar, math, and reading comprehension.  The books below are preparatory books for that test. These books are on Reserve, and may be used in the library by prospective students.

One standard reference work through the years has been Physician's Desk Reference. The formerly was a purchased physical book located on the Permanent Reserve shelf. We just received out last printed copy. The publisher tells us that no more print copies will be made. It is now going to be a free online resource. You can also go to the website directly at www.PDR.net.

Nursing Books On Reserve in the Library

Course Reserves are books, textbooks, articles, chapters, videos, sample tests, professor's notes, homework solutions, videos, CD's, DVD's or other types of material which are selected by faculty for use in a specific course.  Reserve materials are housed at the Circulation Desk of Moody Library and are available for check-out during regular library hours.  These items may be checked out for varying lengths of time from 2 hours (to be used only within the library) and up to one week, depending on the policy of the instructor.  Fines for overdue reserve materials can accrue substantially.

There are a large number of nursing materials on Reserve. They include VHS tapes, DVDs, standards for various areas of nursing practice, and books that are required reading for specific nursing courses. Click here to search for books on reserve.
