I need help with care plans/ formatting for excelsior exams


Does anyone have any sample care plans they can share? I failed the HDLS 2 and it was suggested to make a care plan. Including signs/symptoms, diagnostics tests, treatment plans with foucs in nursing care and medications
I just don't know how to get started. I can easily make one from excel but not sure how to set it up.

Please Please Advise!

thanks,
Lisa

what you could do is just list the sign and symptoms you would see in the disease process.
list the labs or diagnostics exams used to diagnose the disease
what are some nursing interventions to be implemented
what are some pt. outcomes to be expected as a result of our nursing care
hope this helps
