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. This course will include a clinical assignment. All components of the didactic and clinical assignment must be completed to successfully complete the course. Failure to successfully meet these requirements will result in a course failure. 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.
