NUR 301 - Health Assessment

This course will provide students with the ability to understand principles of health and apply them to daily living. Students will use theory to apply healthy behaviors to individuals and families in order to develop plans of health for them throughout their lifespan. Utilizing national goals for health, e.g. Healthy People 2020, CDC Guidelines and Institute of Medicine documents, students will identify health behaviors for themselves and their patients. As well, students will be provided with the skills necessary to assess health through therapeutic interviews and physical assessment in order to differentiate between normal and abnormal health findings. This course includes a laboratory component.
