NURS 334 Medical-Surgical Nursing II-TH & Lab
Builds on the knowledge, skills and attitudes gained through the study of Medical-Surgical Nursing I and integrates knowledge from the humanities and sciences into the holistic and informed care of patients with select and co-morbid medical-surgical problems. Skill in critical thinking and clinical problem solving is expanded, practiced, and refined. Evidence-based practice, quality, and safety are emphasized. Therapeutic communication skills, therapeutic nursing interventions, levels of prevention, and the nursing process are applied in a variety of acute care medical and surgical settings. Each 300 level nursing clinical course must be successfully completed in order to progress to the subsequent clinical nursing course. Offered in the Spring semester for traditional students and in the Fall semester for accelerated students.
