NURBN3033 Primary Health 4: Nursing People Living with Chronic Conditions
Australia faces the challenge of an increasing prevalence of people living with chronic illnesses who experience increased complexity and diversity of healthcare needs. This unit examines the concept of nursing people with various chronic conditions using a personcentered and best-practice approach. Students will be assisted in understanding the burden of chronic disease and its impact on Australia by identifying chronic disease models and the tools and resources to manage chronic illnesses. This unit will enhance prior knowledge, skills, and awareness of the principles and provision of nursing responses for supportive in-place care for people with chronic illnesses.
