NR 2503 - Mental Health Nursing |
Three credit hours. Two credit hour theory and one credit hour clinical course. The nursing process serves as a framework for studying behavior along a continuum, ranging from mental health to mental illness. The role of the ADN is enhanced as both a provider and manager of care as the student learns to recognize actual and potential behavior patterns and the human responses in adults, children (pediatrics), and families. Clinical experience will provide an opportunity to increase skills and knowledge of communication, psychotherapeutic medications, client teaching, and function as a member within the discipline of nursing. The student will apply the nursing process and utilize critical thinking in providing and managing care for clients and families in the community.
