    Description
    This course is designed to help fourth-semester nursing students develop clinical reasoning skills to provide care for patients with advanced medical-surgical problems including critical, life-threatening events that the students might not ordinarily encounter in the clinical setting. A variety of experiences are used to enhance clinical reasoning skills such as verbal discussion of various patient care scenarios, evolving patient case studies, simulations, and National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX) practice questions. This course is offered on a Pass/No Pass basis only. This is an elective course in the Nursing Program.
