NUR 211X - Nursing III

10 Cr.
Contact Hours Per Week: 4 Lec.

Nursing III focuses on patient-centered, holistic nursing care for various age groups when common recurring interruptions occur in ability to meet need for oxygen, fluid and electrolyte balance, rest and activity (orthopedic), and safety and security (neurological). Included is a component specific to the special needs of children. The student develops a comprehensive plan of care using the nursing process, with increasing prioritization of needs, interventions and promotion of health through teaching individuals and families. Students participate in a variety of acute and community health settings, which illustrate diversity in the health care environment. Psychomotor skills are developed and assessed for competency through the use of the College, Clinical Laboratory, and Simulation Lab. Theoretical principles and nursing techniques are correlated throughout the course with subsequent application and evaluation in the clinical laboratory. The Simulation Lab is used to apply theoretical principles and nursing techniques. A variety of clinical experiences in acute, pediatric and community-based agencies provide for correlation of theory and practice. Restricted to nursing students.
