NURS 93
Reproductive Health Nursing
Course Description
This course builds upon prior learning experiences to develop knowledge and skills used in management of nursing care of patients during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum, as well as general management of reproductive health. The course integrates the knowledge of pathophysiology, diagnostics, pharmacology, communication concepts, and therapeutic interventions in order to facilitate culturally congruent nursing care for patients seeking reproductive health services. Students will become increasingly competent in the application of nursing process, research, problem-solving and use of clinical judgment within the framework of safe patient-centered, evidence-based care. Both NURS 93 and NURS 93L must be taken and passed concurrently within the same quarter (failure of either component requires both courses to be retaken).
Student Learning Outcomes
- Apply the theoretical knowledge of pregnancy, birth physiology and perinatal care to specific patient-focused care situations.
