NURS 417 - Management of Complex Health Problems
8 Credits
The focus of this course is holistic professional Nursing practice through synthesis, analysis and application of knowledge. Increase in clinical competence is gained through integration of empirical and professional knowledge, clinical and cognitive skills and professional values and behaviors. Based on the synthesis of knowledge the student will continue to provide comprehensive nursing care to patients, families and the community. Upon evaluation of intervention effectiveness, students will (re)formulate the plan of care and create new nursing interventions as appropriate. Students have the opportunity to identify their own learning needs and develop a learning contract to meet them. The contract is implemented in a clinical setting of particular interest to the student and as deemed appropriate by the faculty in the course. The theoretical component is case study/seminar format with discussion of selected topics and student presentations of a selected study. The students will use research skills to complement their clinical case load with a thorough critique of correlating articles and evidence-based practice. Lab fee: $300.
