    Description
    NURSNG 35 and NURSNG 35L must be taken concurrently. The focus in this course is to enable the student to develop competencies in understanding complex health problems and managing health deviations related to the neurosensory, cardiovascular, and respiratory disorders and the burn injury patient. Students will utilize Orem’s Self-Care Model and the nursing process in assessing self-care requisites of selected patients. Students will determine the therapeutic self-care demand and design a plan of care that promotes the optimal level of function of adults and older adults with complex health problems. Principles of delegation are explored.
