Nursing of Families with Children is one of two 7 ½ week modules taught in the final semester of the four semester nursing clinical course sequence.
This course focuses on the nursing process for families with well and sick children.  A family centered, holistic approach provides the organization for the course, within the framework of clinical reasoning, caring and nursing practice competencies. Commonly occurring deviations from wellness experienced by children, family responses and appropriate nursing interventions are discussed as well as the growth and development of well children. Clinical study is provided on pediatric units, nursery schools, well-baby clinics and in selected schools.  There is an optional honors section available.
A satisfactory clinical evaluation and a minimum theory grade of 75% are required for progression in the program. Students must also register for NURS C24 (clinical).
Upon completion of the course, the successful learner will be able to demonstrate understanding of basic principles of growth and development, primary pediatric diseases, dynamics of families with sick children and basic pediatric nursing skills.
