Maternity Nursing Care Plans PDF | 20 OB Care Plans with Rationales | NCLEX Study Guide | Nursing Student Printable | Blank Worksheet

20 maternity nursing care plans, written the way your instructor wants them: ranked diagnoses, SMART goals and a rationale for every intervention.

I'm Anna, RN, BSN, PHN, a nurse educator and former nursing instructor. I've been helping nursing students through NurseStudy.Net since 2012. This guide covers the pregnancy, labor and delivery and postpartum complications you will see in OB clinical and on the NCLEX. Each care plan fits on one page and follows ADPIE, so you can learn the priorities fast and turn any page into your own school care plan. Updated for current practice (no bed rest for preeclampsia or preterm labor, current PPH definition with TXA, current mastitis care).
