NU 314 - Care of Children

Students build on previous knowledge of growth and development, and pathophysiology to assess, plan and implement safe and developmentally appropriate nursing interventions to children from birth through adolescence. Rich clinical experiences in both hospital-based and community settings provide opportunities to strengthen communication skills with children and families from diverse backgrounds. Classroom analysis of specific case studies encourage peer review as a method to stimulate critical thinking.
