Care Plan Book

Hey guys. I am planning on taking the FCCA in the next month and need to get a care plan book. I am not sure which one I should get. Any info would be appreciated, thx.

Get the exact book they tell you to get - you will also use it for your CPNE.

Here is the link for amazon, but you can use the isbn to buy a copy whereever you like:

You must have the 2nd or 3rd edition. They are very specific in the FCCA instructions.

when i called and asked, they said it had to be the first or second edition if you want to use it at the cpne. i was told that you can not use the third edition at the cpne.

Several people I tested with had the 3rd edition, but I'd stick to the second to be on the safe side.

Just make sure you make yourself a big note to be sure and pack your copy, along with your med book. You do not want to have to rely upon finding either of these on the unit when you test.
