    Description
    This course focuses on the theoretical and clinical application of the nursing process and clinical judgment in the provision of safe and effective nursing care for patients across the lifespan. The course facilitates the transition from student nurse to graduate nurse, and includes content related to professional nursing and healthcare concepts. Students participate as a preceptee or mentee/member of the healthcare team and assume responsibility for a group of patients under the direct supervision of a registered nurse or a non-faculty preceptor. Upon completion of the course, students are expected to function satisfactorily within the Nurse of the Future core competencies. The California Board of Registered Nursing (BRN) requires that students must be enrolled in ADN 234 and ADN 234L at the same time and pass both courses together: the courses cannot be taken individually for credit.
