Description:

Laboratory experiences will be coordinated with theoretical content in Nursing Process & Health Promotion Groups/Community Theory. The student will use the nursing process and the Systems-Developmental- Stress Model in a variety of settings with clients at different developmental stages from conception through elderly. The students are encouraged to use critical thinking as they view individuals, families, groups and communities as open systems in continual, mutual interaction with other systems. Clients will be assessed at various places along the health illness continuum with increased emphasis on deviations from health. Families, groups and communities will be the primary focus for the student as he/she continues to use public health principles and the community as a system. Laboratory settings are community focus and may include: day care centers, well baby clinics, visiting nurse service, schools, hospital outpatient services, family planning programs, homeless shelters community agencies and psychiatric-crisis walk-in clinics. Emphasis will be placed on individuals, families and groups as members of the community. Prerequisites: NURS 357 BSN Transitions and NURS 450 Theoretical Basis of Nursing.
