Course Descriptions
NUR173
Nursing Care of the Adult III
This course is a continuation of the systems approach, with discussion of the more complex medical surgical disorders and their effect on adult clients. Mental health concepts and issues and trends in nursing are addressed. Clinical rotations are planned to support these specialties. Greater independence in initiating all phases of the nursing process, incorporating health teaching, and identifying referral resources will be evaluated during clinical rotations. The ability to build on and transfer theoretical knowledge from the classroom to the clinical area is paramount as the student progresses through this course. 6 Credits (4 Lecture - 6 Lab)
