This course focuses on the role of the nurse in providing safe, competent, holistic, and evidence-based care for adult patients with increasingly complex pathophysiological imbalances in homeostasis and resultant unmet needs. Individuals study complex interventions to assist patients to promote, maintain, and restore homeostasis, with an emphasis on common health problems that are more likely to result in acute illness and/or surgical interventions. Clinical hours are completed through a combination of on-campus activities and off-site clinical experiences, primarily in acute care facilities.
