Students will demonstrate evidence-based practice through their clinical experiences while providing care to clients with health issues in the cardiovascular, digestive, endocrine, nervous, and skeletal muscle systems. They will gain experience working with adults in acute care settings, as well as the families of people with acute illnesses. The course is based on critical thinking and problem-solving strategies for the care of adults with acute or complex illnesses and/or injuries. The effects of an acute illness are examined in relation to the individual’s developmental stage, culture, and gender. A systems approach is used to analyze and intervene in changes in the health of the individual and the family. Clinical experience will include palliative and end-of-life care. Students are expected to plan, implement, and evaluate comprehensive plans of care that incorporate principles of pharmacology, nutrition, pathophysiology, and psychosocial aspects of care. The student will also provide individualized patients and family education based on the patient’s specific situation. Ninety (90) lecture hours.
