NUR-101 Nursing Care of the Adult and Child I

This is the first of a two-semester sequence presenting commonly occurring health problems and their impact on Erikson's developmental stages and Maslow's needs. Nursing concepts align with the FLCC Nursing Department's Philosophy and Organizing Framework as well as the National League for Nursing (NLN) Competencies and Outcomes. Major units of study include transitions in health care, commonalities in the illness experience, coping with problems of oxygenation, nutrition, metabolism, elimination, and motor activity. Experiences in the college laboratory and clinical facilities support theoretical content. Note: Clinical meets for 11 weeks. Be prepared for lecture on campus during time when clinical does not meet.
