Course Detail
Description: This course is designed to expand the student's learning in a specified topic related to nursing practice. Advanced theories and principles related to the delivery of nursing care in selected settings and/or with selected patient populations are presented. The course builds on the previous coursework throughout the curriculum. In particular, this course builds on NR 110.402, Child Health Nursing. This course is designed to provide in-depth theoretical background for acute care of ill children with complex health problems. It is organized around specific areas of practice the acute care nurse may encounter in both pediatric and adult units where children are cared for: neurological insults, congenital cardiac defects, complex respiratory management, post-operative care, pain management, burn care, poisonings, and disaster management. Developmental, psychosocial, cultural, environmental, health promotion, and ethical issues are integral to the discussion of each topic.
