Course description

This course will examine concepts related to delivering safe patient and person focused care to adults experiencing acute health care needs. The National Health Priority Areas will guide the course structure. The course builds on evidence-based practice approaches to delivering care to people with acute health care needs. There is an expectation that students continue to reflect on how their practice meets the NMBA Registered Nurse Standards for Practice. Students will have the opportunity through inquiry based learning workshops to further their application of the person centred approach to nursing care. The course content will be delivered over a 13 week period, utilising flipped classroom teaching approaches in theoretical workshop sessions, online learning activities and self-directed learning.
