NUR1302 — Current Concepts In Nursing
2 Credits The focus of this two-credit hour, web-enhanced course is to introduce the LPN/LVN to concepts related to the transition and socialization toward associate degree (A.D.) education and the Registered Nurse role. The course provides learning in relation to the NPC Nursing Philosophy and an introduction to NPC A.D. nursing curricular concepts. Selected NUR 1109 Nursing Process I topics are examined in an effort to develop the LPN/LVN knowledge base to a level consistent with that of the RN student entering NUR 1209 Nursing Process II . A major focus is communication, role transition, and the use of the nursing process in relation to physical, emotional, social, intellectual, and spiritual responses. There is no clinical component to the course.
