Advanced Nursing Care of Adults I

Course work will explore the underlying pathophysiology, assessment, diagnosis, and management of acute illnesses involving the systems of neurology, dermatology, ENT, respiratory, and cardiovascular relevant to the care of adults and geriatric populations. From a Christian perspective, emphasis will be placed on clinical prevention and promotion of healthy lifestyles. Students will synthesize knowledge of physical assessment and interpretation of diagnostic and laboratory findings to determine differential diagnoses and coordinate with the multidisciplinary team to develop a comprehensive plan of care that appropriately incorporates pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic therapy. Prerequisites: NUR 509, NUR 510, or NUR 512.

Prepared to Go Make Disciples

“Thank you Dr. Brickey for pouring so much time, love, and effort into my education to make sure that I became a nurse that is prepared to go make disciples for Christ. I will forever be grateful to you and the Yancey School of Nursing.”
