NCLEX drag and drop practice question on the steps for mixing insulin (clear to cloudy). This NCLEXstyle question requires you to correctly put in order the steps on how to correctly mix a shortacting and intermediate insulin in one syringe for administration.

On the NCLEX exam, you may receive drag and drop type questions where you will be required to put the options in the correct order. These questions can be about nursing procedures or nursing priorities.

This particular NCLEX practice question will require you to determine which insulin in drawn up in the syringe first and how you would perform these steps correctly.

This video is part of a weekly NCLEX review series where I will be going over NCLEXstyle questions with you. I will be helping you analyze and breakdown each question, and walk you through how to select the correct option.

NCLEX questions require critical thinking and you must know how to use your nursing knowledge to gather the facts and analyze what the question is asking.
