In Nursing Practice IV, participants focus on individuals and their families experiencing increasingly complex episodic health challenges. Based on previous learning, experiences incorporate concepts from all courses within the semester. This course includes nursing practice experience, community/family visits, and praxis seminars. Nursing practice experiences involve working with clients and their families experiencing common and predictable episodic health challenges. Nursing practice experience occurs in medical and/or surgical settings, providing participants with opportunities to organize care for two or more clients experiencing complex episodic health challenges. Course learning activities also include a community agency or service visit and a home family visit, both with a focus on individuals’ and families’ experiences with complex episodic health challenges.
In praxis seminar, participants address concepts from semester courses, such as:
In this course, participants learn about professional nursing practice, critical thinking, and critical reflection. Practice experiences are supported by seminars, which provide opportunities to examine theories and concepts through discussion, exploration, and integration. Praxis involves the examination of the dynamic interplay between theory and practice. Praxis is actualized by critical reflection, journaling, and active participation in nursing practice seminars. Participants explore the lived experience of individuals and families experiencing the varying effects of complex episodic health challenges. Participants also explore the role of the nurse in the promotion of health and healing.
Course evaluation is consistent with Douglas College Curriculum Development and Approval policy. An evaluation schedule is presented at the beginning of the course. Respect for individual choice and an openness to negotiation guide decisions about methods of evaluation.
An appraisal form is used that encompasses the five domains of nursing practice (health and healing, teaching/learning, decision making for nursing practice, professional responsibility, collaborative leadership), competencies, and quality indicators. Quality indicators incorporate the minimal semester requirements and address what participants should know, be, and do by the end of the semester. Nursing practice congruent with the quality indicators is an essential component of successful completion of this course.
This is a mastery course.
