NU 415 Conceptual Basis for Advanced Nursing Practice (Fall/Spring: 3)
The theoretical foundations of advanced nursing practice as an art and a
science are the focus of this course. Opportunities are available to explore
and evaluate existing conceptual frameworks and mid-range theories currently
used within the discipline. The domain of clinical judgement, including
diagnostic, therapeutic, and ethical reasoning, is examined. Emphasis is
placed on interrelationships among theory, research, and practice and the
implementation of theory-based practice within the clinical environment.
