NSG 4432 Pediatric Nursing Care
Lecture: 4 Lab: 0 Practica: 2 Total Credits: 6
Pediatric Nursing Care introduces the student to the health needs of children from birth through adolescence within the culturally diverse family setting. Health promotion, maintenance, prevention, and restorative health care of the child are studied along the health-illness continuum. Nursing interventions, particularly effective communication, include the child and the family with emphasis on family-centered care and the child’s health care needs. Normal growth and development of the child is integrated throughout the course as developmental stages are important to consider when caring for the pediatric population. Clinical experiences allow further development of concepts as applied to pediatric clients along the health-illness continuum. Clinical conferences provide an opportunity for the student to share and discuss learning experiences.
