NURBN2022 Nursing Practice 3: Person-Centered Nursing Practice A
This unit will provide students with the skills, knowledge and attitudes required by nurses in the provision of person-centred consumer-led care. Students will explore personcentered care for people experiencing an acute illness, requiring hospitalisation for medical conditions and/or surgery, for conditions involving the National Health Priority areas of the cardiovascular, respiratory, nervous, digestive and musculoskeletal systems. Students will consolidate their understanding of the clinical reasoning cycle and apply the cycle and nursing clinical judgement and decision making to people with medical or surgical admissions, across the lifespan. Students will refine comprehensive assessment skills to conduct focused, person-centred physical and mental wellness assessments, interpret, and analyse findings to inform a person-centred plan of care, implement and evaluate care. Students will be introduced to delirium care. Students will have the opportunity to apply theory to practice during a structured clinical practicum experience. This unit contains 160 hours of clincial practice.
