Medical-Surgical Nursing I Clinical

Catalog description

This course allows you to integrate evidence-based theory to the assessment, planning, implementation, and evaluation of care while providing care for adults with health alterations in the medical-surgical setting. You will apply knowledge gained to your skills, simulations, and clinical experiences that will focus on applying the appropriate care to adult patients in a medical-surgical setting. Implementation of nursing interventions, the use of patient care technologies, interprofessional, effective oral and written communication skills, evidence-based practice, and clinical decision-making skills will be examined. The nursing process will be further applied to the care of medical-surgical patients. You will examine and demonstrate your own personal accountability for professional development and cultural competence. You must successfully complete all requirements of both didactic and clinical courses. Failure of one course will lead to a repeat of both the didactic and clinical courses.
