Introduction to the Doctor of Nursing Practice with Residency

Catalog description

This introductory course focuses on the Doctor of Nursing Practice role orientation and immersion. Emphasis is placed on developing skills toward the application of theory and an understanding of scientific underpinnings of Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN) practice at the doctoral level. Students will establish an understanding of clinical need based on advocacy, population health, and health promotion as they build on their graduate-level understanding of key concepts. Translation of clinical need will be used to produce and operationalize a PICOT question designed to solve a practice problem. This course includes a synchronous virtual residency.
