Compulsory Courses
In the clinical practice environment, students engage in learning opportunities to build professional identity and use problem solving and decision-making skills; work as an effective team member; build caring environments, develop therapeutic relationships and use communication skills. With faculty, nursing, and inter-professional health-care provider guidance, students move toward self-directed proficiency in providing quality client care. Students work collaboratively to assess, plan, meet, evaluate and document clients’ health-care needs and health outcomes using a theory-based approach and relevant evidence, standards and guidelines. In this course, students are required to apply knowledge of all pre-requisite courses with competency required in quality assurance and reflective practice. Kouzes & Posner’s Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership, and nursing theories and frameworks will be analyzed by the student to foster their own professional development. Teaching methodologies include clinical practicum; online resources; and health-care provider, teacher and peer feedback activities.
This course is delivered as a placement. Scheduling, location, and hours vary based on placement requirements.
