Rationales CPNE help!

[Nibbles1]

Anyone taking or has taken the CPNE help me out with a good rationale to use? I was using Robs CPNE rationale, however the instructors grading my care plans said to use something else.

Just applied for CPNE. The rationale would be specific for the care plan. Are they giving you anything more specific than "use something else"?

I was struggling with care plans for a while. I was way overthinking them and making them much more complicated. I found Sheri Taylor's online cpne and it was totally worth the money. I think it was like 137 bucks for unlimited access for 30 days, or something like that. Anyway her videos on care plans were amazing. Finally it just all clicked. The care plans are actually very simple. They key is keeping them simple and basic. She gives u a bunch of practice care plans and grades them and her feedback was a huge help. After 2 or 3 I figured it out and realized they aren't hard at all. In fact at my cpne I got lucky and ended up using pretty much the exact care plans for all the patients. I know it won't always work out that way, but in general there's like 10 basic ones. I flagged those in my care plan book and didn't even look at any others. I highly recommend trying her online cpne. I seriously never would have passed without it. She's amazing at care plans!
