NRSG410 Health and Wellness Assessment (Clinical Course)

As providers of care, nurses should be competent in conducting comprehensive assessments of the health and well being of patients. Assessment includes completion of a systematic health history, a physical examination, a family and social and spiritual history, and a life style behavioral assessment. Students will learn the strategies for completing and recording a comprehensive patient assessment focused on health and wellness across the lifespan. Though a physical exam will be covered, this is not a physical assessment course. Students must earn a grade of C- (70%) or higher in all courses within the RN to BSN degree program to pass the course in the program.
