Nursing and Health Care Administration Practicum

Catalog description

The practicum course guides the student in a synthesis of content from nursing and related sciences and the application of this knowledge to the role of the nurse in leadership and management experiences. Emphasis will be placed on the student's clinical engagement in management initiatives requiring critical assessment, planning, intervention, and evaluation activities using theoretical models and management tools. Students in the practicum experience are expected to progress throughout the clinical practicum from requiring assistance to becoming primarily independent.
