CHPN Study Material?

[eyeontheprize19, BSN, RN]

Hi everyone! I am looking to sit for the CHPN exam later in the year. I am wondering if there’s some sort of textbook that I could use to study off of as I found the official test outline to be somewhat vague/broad overview.

Thanks!

I'm guessing you are referring to the "Detailed Content Outline" that you can download? If so, I agree - this wasn't super helpful for me. I did find it helpful in the respect that it helped me to figure out what areas I was familiar and not familiar with.

The HPNA sells "Core Competency" texts on it's site. This is very detailed and I found it very helpful for studying for the CHPN.

Best of luck to you! I found I learned so much studying for my CHPN that I am able to apply to my clinical practice. I highly recommend this certification.
