    Description
    NURSNG 50 and NURSNG 50L must be taken concurrently. The purpose of this course is to facilitate the transition from student nurse to the role of entry-level staff nurse. Emphasis is on the theoretical concepts of leadership and management. The student will integrate knowledge and skills pertinent to the role of manager of care for a group of patients and members of the health care team. The role of manager incorporates delegation, priority setting, legal-ethical issues, and health care delivery systems. Issues and trends relevant to professional nursing will be explored.
