NUR 20000 - Foundations of Culturally Safe Nursing Practice

(8) In this course, students will be introduced to the role of the professional, culturally safe nurse. Students will discover how culturally safe nursing practice influences delivery of healthcare across the lifespan. Using the Quality and Safety Education of Nurses (QSEN) competencies, students will apply foundational level thinking by exploring the role of the nurse as both a healthcare team member and advocate of client-centered care. Students will further apply novice level clinical reasoning using Gidden’s concepts. Students will begin to recognize and analyze cues, generate, and prioritize hypotheses in clinical, simulation, and classroom settings. Foundational nursing care issues will be addressed from a physiologic, pathophysiologic, psychosocial, and cultural context. Nursing informatics and evaluation of evidence-based practice will be threaded throughout the course. Prerequisite: Admission to the ADN Program. Offered: Fall.
