(9) This course introduces the learner to framework of the OCNE curriculum. The emphasis on health promotion across the life span includes learning about self-health as well as client health practices. To support self and client health practices, students learn to access research evidence about healthy lifestyle patterns and risk factors for disease/illness, apply growth and development theory, interview clients in a culturally-sensitive manner, work as members of a multidisciplinary team giving and receiving feedback about performance, and use reflective thinking about their practice as nursing students. The family experiencing a normal pregnancy is a major exemplar. Includes classroom and clinical learning experiences. Prerequisite: Anatomy and Physiology.

(6) This course introduces assessment and common interventions (including technical procedures) for clients with chronic illnesses common across the life span in major ethnic groups within Oregon. The client and family's "lived experience" of thillness, coupled with clinical practice guidelines and extant research evidence is used to guide clinical judgments in care to the chronically ill. Roles of multidisciplinary team in care of the chronically ill, and legal aspects of delegations are explored. Through case scenarios, cultural, ethical, health policy, and health care delivery system issues are explored in the context of the chronic illness care. Case exemplars include children with asthma, adolescent with a mood disorder, Type II diabetes, and older adults with dementia. Includes classroom and clinical learning experiences.
