Nursing IIB (SRV) (P)

NURS117C - Nursing IIB (SRV) Nursing IIB expands upon the concepts of nursing knowledge and caring to support growth and development over the life cycle. The emphasis of the course is on Universal, Developmental and/or Health Deviation Self-Care Requirements. The student focuses on the educative/supportive and partially compensatory nursing systems and employs effective therapeutic communication to care for patients with selected self-care deficits throughout the life cycle. Professional, ethical and legal standards of nursing practice are utilized to provide holistic and culturally-sensitive nursing care throughout the life cycle. Planned learning experiences provide the student with the opportunity to coordinate environmental and technological resources in the delivery of patient care. Opportunities for analysis of principles and concepts of nursing knowledge are provided through Clinical Resource Center experiences and patient care assignments in various settings. To facilitate the teaching/learning process, ongoing evaluations occur through interactions between student and faculty.
