NSG202 Nursing 4
Prepares the student to practice nursing within the legal, ethical and regulatory framework using Maslow's Human Needs Theory and the nursing process. Didactic, laboratory and clinical practice experiences provide the framework for the student to build on their knowledge, skills and behaviors for nursing practice, guided by the Nurse of the Future Core Competencies. Emphasis is placed on the care of the adult in the community and mental health settings. Nursing management, leadership and delegation skills are developed. Under the guidance of the faculty, students use evidence based knowledge with sensitivity to age, gender, culture, race, health disparities, socioeconomic status and spirituality to care for a patient or groups of patients in diverse health settings. The learner builds competence with leadership, management and delegation and collaboration with health care team members.
