Has anyone used the Mosby's Care Plan Constructor CD? Barnes and Nobles has it for 39.00 and some change, is it worth it?

Probably not, but I've never used it. Care plans are really pretty easy to construct. I bought a care plan book that wasn't on our syllabus, and quickly discovered that my instructor didn't like the "new, improved" wording in my care plans, lol. So in effect, more than a tool to walk you through the process, you really need to figure out what your instructors want and regurgitate that on a regular basis. If you're brand new to care plans, the CD gives you confidence, and you can afford it, then it might be worth it... but after a while care plans become pretty generic and much easier to do.
