NSG102 Nursing 2
Prepares the student to become a provider of care to the childbearing and childrearing family. The student will perform a comprehensive health assessment guided by Maslow's Human Needs Theory and the nursing process. The focus is on the biophysical, cultural, emotional and social factors involved in nursing practice across the lifespan. Didactic, laboratory and clinical practice experiences provide the basis to apply acquired knowledge, skills and behaviors. A family centered approach is emphasized with utilization of the nursing process and Nurse of the Future Competencies. Under the guidance of the faculty, students use evidence based knowledge with sensitivity to age, gender, culture, race, health, disparities, socioeconomic status and spirituality. Correlated clinical experiences are provided in diverse health care settings. Collaboration with members of the health care team is introduced.
