GNUR 514 - 001

One course of a three-course sequence, GNUR 514 is designed to prepare the Nurse Practitioner to assume responsibility for coordination and management of adult/older adult health care. A major focus of the course is to prepare the student to assess and manage selected common health problems of adults/older adults in primary care settings. Indications for collaboration, consultation, and/or referral to other health care providers are emphasized as an integral part of the nurse practitioner's role. The accompanying practicum offers the student an opportunity to exercise critical judgment and implement theoretical knowledge in the management of care of adults experiencing common health problems.
