providing a rationale for choice of dressing(s) or therapy
a discussion of one alternative dressing or therapy option from a different dressing category that could have been used (e.g. this might be a choice that you couldn’t make because the product was unavailable to you) and one inappropriate dressing choice including why it was not suitable for this patient.
