NSG 203B - Nursing III: Psychiatric NSG

Institution:

University of New England

Subject:

Nursing

Description:

This course is composed of three separate areas of study, challenging students to apply previously acquired skills and knowledge in new situations with specialized populations where they will temporarily return to the role of novice. The components of the course are designed to introduce the novice student to the domains of practice in the areas of maternal-child, psychiatric-mental health, and pediatric nursing. Students will be guided by expert nursing faculty in these areas as they work with clients and families undergoing changes throughout their life spans in institutional and community settings. Students will continue to gain experience in all of the domains of nursing practice using Patricia Benner¿s novice-to-expert nursing model and Maslow¿s Theory of Human Needs as organizing frameworks for the care of individuals and families with selected physical and psychosocial problems.
