This course concentrates on the theories underlying the principles involved in the planning and implementation of nursing interventions appropriate for adults with various complex health problems. The health status of the American population will be addressed with emphasis on the impact of major diseases of the individual, the family, and the community. The course will focus on developing skills in problem-solving and clinical judgment so that students may function successfully in a variety of patient situations, including those where: (a) rapidly changing situations predominate and (b) the aging process and the health problems of advancing age predominate. In an acute inpatient setting, students will assess, analyze, plan, implement, and evaluate the nursing care of adult patients under direct supervision. Comprehensive nursing care for patients with a wide range of disorders will be addressed as well as the need for patient teaching and continuity of care as the patients returns to the community.
