FEATURED

The Charge Desk

FAQ

The questions we’d ask too.

Is this medical advice?

No. Pocket Charge Student provides educational support only. It does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, dosing recommendations, or patient-specific guidance.

Are you affiliated with NCSBN?

No. NCLEX® and NGN are trademarks of the National Council of State Boards of Nursing, Inc. Pocket Charge Student is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by NCSBN. No pass guarantee, no job guarantee.

Does this replace ATI, Kaplan, UWorld, or Archer?

It complements them. Pocket Charge is the daily-practice and survival layer: small reps, clinical tools, and real-nurse coaching alongside whatever your program requires.

When does beta open, and what do founding members get?

The exact date is pending, but our goal is to have students in the app and giving feedback this fall semester. Waitlist members get first access, and founding members lock Student Plus at $39 a year for life, even when the price goes up later.

Who is behind Pocket Charge?

I’m Luke Adams, a critical care RN who found a love for mentoring the next generation of nurses. I’ve been at the bedside for over 15 years, as a preceptor and a charge nurse, and I still remember exactly how it felt to be new. Pocket Charge is the mentor I wish I’d had.

Is Pocket Charge only for students?

The student app will take you from your first semester to your first job, but that’s not the end of the road. I’m working with educators from across the country to build extensions in five specialties: ICU, PCU, med-surg, ED, and peds. The goal is to make sure wherever you end up, Pocket Charge is there with you. Founding members will be first in line as it grows.

How do I install it?

It’s a PWA: when your invite arrives, open the link and tap “Add to Home Screen.” No App Store hunt. I’ll send step-by-step instructions with your invite.

What happens to my info?

I only collect what you type into the form and use it to send beta access and Pocket Charge updates. No selling lists, no spam, unsubscribe anytime.
