This course will focus on the holistic nursing care of pediatric and adult clients with self-care deficits associated with well- defined alterations in the renal, urinary, neurologic function. Pharmacology, diet therapy, and legal/ethical parameters will be integrated into each unit of study. Prime attention will be given to using established nursing diagnoses as foundations for assessing, planning, implementing, and evaluating nursing care. Nursing strategies for meeting basic health care needs will be stressed. Medical and surgical interventions as modes of client health care will be discussed. This course provides 4 hours of lecture, 3 hours of lab and 15 hours each week of planned learning experiences to provide opportunities to integrate theory with clinical practice.
