    Description
    The final eight-week course designed to provide a progressive and sequential study of common, well-defined health problems is presented in VN 132. The concepts from previous courses are applied with increasing complexity to the caring of individuals throughout the lifespan. The pathophysiology, treatment, and nursing management of common health alterations involving the neurological, integumentary, gastrointestinal, and renal systems are studied in a progressive comprehensive sequence. Principles of growth and development are reinforced. The nursing process is utilized to identify the problems and nursing interventions needed for selected patients in the clinical setting.
