Pediatric Nursing


Course Description

This course focuses on an introduction to the nursing care of children. The framework of patient-centered care will be used as a basis to study the health/illness continuum as it applies to children and their families. The nursing process will be integrated throughout the course as a primary tool for delivering nursing care to children. Critical thinking and problem-solving skills will be employed through group exercises and independent study with consideration for the registered nurse's specific scope of practice.
