A complete walkthrough to help you prepare for the NR-224 Fundamentals - Skills exam.
Students are introduced to the fundamental skills of professional nursing. An introductory unit of physics provides the basis for understanding concepts such as body mechanics, positioning, and mobility. The laboratory component provides practice of selected fundamental nursing skills, as well as the psychomotor skills necessary for care of individuals requiring assistance with mobility, hygiene, and comfort, including basic principles of drug administration, teaching-learning, and vital-sign assessment.
NR-224 evaluates your knowledge across these areas:
The nursing process, data collection, and accurate documentation.
Medical and surgical asepsis, precautions, and isolation.
Measuring vital signs and supporting oxygenation.
Body mechanics, positioning, mobility, hygiene, and wound care.
Our question bank is built to help you master NR-224 with targeted practice and clear explanations.
Questions written in the NCLEX style used on NR-224 course exams, so you practice the way you will be tested.
Know not just the right answer but why the others are wrong - so every question teaches you something.
Every major topic in the NR-224 content outline is represented across the question sets.
Build the confidence you need to walk into test day calm and prepared.
Assess your knowledge and experience the NR-224 format before taking the actual exam.

Start Practice →NR-224 introduces the fundamental psychomotor skills of professional nursing, including vital signs, infection control, safe mobility and body mechanics, hygiene, basic drug administration, and wound care, largely through the laboratory component.
NR-224 is the skills-and-lab course that builds foundational nursing techniques, while NR-226 applies those skills to direct patient care in the clinical setting. Most programs take them together or in sequence.
Pair hands-on skills practice with question review of the principles behind each skill, then check your reasoning against the rationales. Our NR-224 question bank mirrors how fundamentals content is tested.
Fundamentals is where safe nursing practice begins. Mastering NR-224 gives you the skills, safety habits, and vital-sign and infection-control foundations that every later course and clinical rotation depends on.
