Health Maintenance and Restoration II

This course builds on basic sciences and content introduced in N254: Health Maintenance and Restoration I. Students will have expanded opportunities to use critical and reflective processes to guide decisions to care for clients hospitalized and plan medical and surgical interventions to prepare clients for discharge following hospital care. The course will be framed to integrate content from health assessment, pharmacology, and patho-physiology to the care of clients from diverse ethnic, cultural and geographic backgrounds. Lectures, seminars, clinical practice, and self-directed and technologically based individual and group projects will provide students experiences that enable them to provide and evaluate basic nursing care to maintain and restore health.
