NURBN2108 Person-Centered Nursing Practice B
This unit enables students to draw on their learning in previous subjects to extend and integrate theoretical and practical knowledge gained in the course to date. Students will apply critical thinking and clinical reasoning to assess, plan, and deliver evidence-based nursing care for individuals experiencing acute and chronic conditions in endocrine, hepatic, immune, renal, integumentary, gastrointenstinal systems. Emphasis is placed on integrating knowledge of pathophysiology and pharmacology to inform safe, timely, and person-centred care decisions. Students will consolidate their theoretical knowledge through clinical laboratory classes and 120 hours of clinical placement, to support the application of concepts and the delivery of comprehensive, safe, and person-centred care in accordance with national nursing standards and professional guidelines. Under supervision, students will begin to recognise early signs of clinical deterioration and contribute to the timely escalation of care, including interpreting key clinical indicators and implementing appropriate nursing interventions. The unit also supports the development of accurate, professional documentation and communication skills, including the use of digital platforms, to promote safe, person-centred care and effective intra- and interprofessional collaboration in both simulated and clinical settings
