Description
A foundational nursing course that introduces concepts and skills basic to professional nursing and builds on the whole-person perspective of the Adventist Framework for Nursing Practice. This framework defines humans as complex integrated beings with physiological, psychological, sociocultural, and spiritual needs and attributes. Critical thinking, clinical reasoning, nursing process, and ethical and legal standards are introduced as the basis for safe, quality, culturally appropriate, patient-centered nursing care. Application of knowledge, skills, and professional behavior occurs in the simulation, skills lab, and healthcare facilities.
