This course builds upon prior learning to further develop clinical decision-making skills. Students use clinical evidence to plan care for individuals of diverse backgrounds within a structured environment. The nursing process forms the framework for prioritizing care and making basic delegation decisions. A holistic approach focuses on caring for individuals experiencing common health care problems with primary pathology in the endocrine, gastro-intestinal, genito-urinary, musculo-skeletal, and neurologic systems. Actual and simulated clinical experiences provide students with opportunities to demonstrate competency in the delivery of nursing care in selected client situations.
