NU 433 Theory & Professional Roles for Contemporary Nursing Practice
Focuses on ethical dimensions of clinical and administrative practice in nursing. Broad philosophical issues that have direct impact on healthcare are explored. Beginning with a reflection of one's own values, the course examines the philosophical basis of nursing ethics, applications of ethical principles, and the ethical decision-making process. Because reflection, dialogue, and critical thinking are essential to understanding ethical practices, the majority of the classes use a seminar format.
