- 0Sep 23, '06 by Daytoniteso were we all at one time. this stuff doesn't come to you overnight. it'd be great if it did! i didn't really get the hang of care plan writing until i was out of nursing school and in a job where we were required to do it. then i learned up pretty darn fast and realized how much i hadn't been paying attention in nursing school.
