Content: This course is designed to fully integrate the students into the profession of nursing. Students will focus on management of groups of clients in the acute care setting. The nurse as leader, manager, patient advocate and clinician are emphasized.

An examination of strengths and weaknesses of nursing care provide the framework for growth and self-reflection. Focus will be on priority settings, integration of research into clinical practice and evaluating patient care and staff. To that end, the in-class courses will review systems and disease with nursing interventions; provide in-class discussion opportunities utilizing evidence-based research care and holistic treatment in the hospital and acute setting.
