Students build on concepts of pathophysiology and disease processes gained from NURS 232. The focus is on selected human structures and functions that support physical and mental health and wellbeing, including glucose and hormone regulation, cellular regulation (including cancer), clotting, perfusion, and sensory perception. Attention is given to pharmacology for addiction and mental health issues. Pharmacological applications, including complementary therapies related to major acute physical and mental health conditions for persons and families across the lifespan, are a focus. Weekly independent clinical skills study and labs are a required component of the course.
