NURBN2106 Primary and Community Care
The Primary and Community Care unit is designed to provide nursing students with a thorough understanding of the roles and responsibilities of nurses in primary and community care settings. This unit emphasises the importance of primary care as the foundation of effective healthcare delivery and the critical role that community care plays in promoting health and well-being. Students will explore the development and implementation of comprehensive nursing care plans that prioritise safety and effectiveness to achieve targeted health outcomes.Through this unit, students will learn to collaborate effectively with individuals, groups, and interdisciplinary healthcare teams in various clinical environments. This collaborative approach is essential for delivering high-quality, person-centred care in community settings. Additionally, the unit covers key health policies that support healthy communities and enhance health literacy within the nursing profession. By understanding these policies, students will be better equipped to advocate for and implement strategies that promote public health.
