Examines nursing interventions in promoting health, guiding the health care experience and shaping the therapeutic environment for adults experiencing acute or chronic illness. Acute illness includes short-term, episodic illnesses and acute exacerbations of selected chronic health problems. Chronic illness is viewed as a significant life event within a person¿s biography that offers both challenges and opportunities to maximize health. Evidence-based standards of practice, consistent with the ANA (2010) Nursing: Scope and Standards of Practice for adults are integrated throughout the course.

This course builds upon previous knowledge and skills related to common adult health needs, reinforcing the continued development of the professional nurse as a provider of patient-centered care, patient safety advocate, member of the health care team and member of the profession.

This course complements the nursing knowledge and skills presented in NUR 3XX. The experiential learning focuses on the nursing care of the adult experiencing acute and/or chronic illness.

This course is the culmination of knowledge and skills across the curriculum. The purpose of this course is to apply all curricular nursing concepts including and within the categories of managing care, psychosocial, nursing interventions, and professional practice within the caring science curriculum through clinical judgment at the highest levels of Bloom's taxonomy learning domains (cognitive, affective) to develop the generalist nurse.
