NURP 510A FNP Clinical Decision-Making I
NURP 510A is Part I of a clinical course series and provides the student the opportunity to integrate theoretical content into practice. Through clinical conferences, skills-building sessions, and clinical practice, the FNP student will achieve the skills necessary to provide primary care to patients across the life span. The synchronous class sessions will meet every other week.
Students will develop their skills in information gathering, clinical judgment, critical thinking, and problem-solving through encounters with diverse patient populations with an emphasis on the family unit. Students will gain exposure to adult, pediatric, women’s health, and OB
patient populations throughout the clinical courses. Communication theory, utilizing problem-oriented medical record (POMR), SOAP or SBAR method for both written and verbal presentations of patient encounters is reinforced.
