Testimonials
“I have used Med+safe for over three years now. The program is easy to access and intuitive. The office and technical support are national and answers are quickly forthcoming. The company has a very personalized approach. IntelliLearn keeps abreast of current changes in the industry, seeks the advice of clinicians and supports national and global safe practice guidelines. An important aspect of the program is that it is not just focused on calculations. Research has shown the medication errors related to gaps in safe practice – that is that students do not read the order carefully, cannot use the equipment (pumps, syringes etc.) and do not follow the five rights of medication management. IntelliLearn Med+safe has practice sessions and tests that take these aspects of medication management into account.
I first came in contact with the IntelliLearn Program Med+safe there years ago. At that time I was working with a University that had the program embedded in the Undergraduate Nursing Course. Students purchased Med+Safe which lasted them for the three years of their Batchelor of Nursing Course. The students were advised of the assessment items that they must complete and the certificates that they received they had to upload onto their BB system as proof of successful completion. For the final years the University ran medication calculation tests under exam conditions. IntelliLearn supported this process giving the university access to the Med+safe program to run the examinations over several days. The students were familiar with the format and could concentrate on the questions and correct answers. The format supports equity among the students in teaching and learning.
Moving to a new university who currently did not use the IntelliLearn Program Med+safe program I suggested that we get in contact with the team for IntelliLearn. They responded quickly, visited the university and presented the program. Med+safe is now a required learning resource. The students can practice the maths for clinician, medication rights, calculations and test themselves. The university is hoping to move to online testing. Students have expressed satisfaction with the program and stated that it made them feel more comfortable and competent with medication management.
As a clinician and educator I strongly recommend IntelliLearn Med+safe for students and experienced practitioners. We can never be safe enough with medications in our practice.”
Anyone who is a professional person understands all too well the importance of keeping up to date with the latest information and evidence regarding professional clinical practice. This is particularly important in the changing landscape of the acute health care environment.
As employers, hospitals understand the value of knowing that your clinical staff are fully compliant with their relevant professional continuing education standards as well as the business critical imperative of the organisation being compliant with the National Safety and Quality Healthcare Standards.
Since 2010 IntelliLearn has played an important role in helping individual nurses and midwives as well as the hospital, meet our respective obligations in this area. We have partnered to ensure that education is available on line, in modular format, readily accessible to our staff and that we can monitor at glance individual staff member’s compliance. This enables the hospital to deliver on our mission of providing safe, contemporary care for every patient, every time.
IntelliLearn has consistently delivered a professional, collaborative, and efficient service playing a role in assisting us turning a fragmented education service into a more structured customer focused program that is well received by staff. Our staff have access to Medication Safety (Med+Safe and Medication and Device Labelling), a series of midwifery modules, manual handling and basic life support.
The hospital is really pleased with the support we have received from IntelliLearn over more than six years and would recommend IntelliLearn to other businesses involved with supporting continuing education for clinical staff.
Allows practical hands on experience. the difference between the educational value of this and the textbook is incomparable. The videos and pdf instructions and education are great.
The software was useful in the way it showed you the medication order on the med chart and the stock strength in the actual bottle or vial. I was able to visualise it much easier than what I could if I just had a question written on paper.
The program is more like what we will get in a hospital ward.
Med+Safe was not just a knowledegeable software/program, but also, it is engaging and very helpful with our studies (e.g. it has visuals, resources, etc.)
I really liked using this software and would recommend future nursing (even current nurses) to use it to learn and refresh medication calculations in the clinical area. 5 stars!
The pdf files are helpful, it’s great you can print them. Med+Safe provides the steps practicing nurses need to take in order to administer medications (the 6 rights) in a good mix of theory and practice.
I found the software excellent, a great training tool, with great videos and gave you the break-down of incorrect answers to learn from.
It was simple and explained medication calculations clearly.

This was amazing and I feel lucky to use it.
The skills were easy to understand and if I didn’t understand the training was great, and took me through step by step.
I could log on whenever it suited me, it was easily accessible and the tutorials and practice help reinforce the formulas.
The software has made it easy to learn medication calculations and I also will look forward to using this software for my medication competency before I go out on prac each semester.
Moving the drip rate up and down in relation to the IV bags was helpful for applying our practical nursing skills and medication calculations.
It was a fantastic resource to be able to log onto any time and repeatedly practice questions, definitely facilitated my learning as the time in labs is often limited.
Great resource!!
I found the resource really valuable to my learning.
