Description

This course is an in-depth examination of concepts of nursing, the nursing role, and related issues that influence health care delivery. Both the role of professional nursing within the health care delivery system as well as the role of the individual nurse as an integral member of the health team are analyzed. Nursing is viewed as a dynamic growing profession that is striving to define and develop its unique body of knowledge through nursing theories. Student-directed seminars are used to study current nursing issues. Prerequisites: Nrsg 424; Nrsg 425; Nrsg 497. Spring
