Description

The course aims to assist registered nurses to recognise the need for innovation in health care and respond to the challenge of change. It is designed to consolidate the nurse's role as educator, clinician, researcher, manager, and patient advocate, and to promote quality nursing care. The conceptual framework aims to base nursing pratice on appropriate nursing research and theory within both ethical and legal parameters. Health promotion and the improvement of health care delivery are also important themes within the course.

Objectives

It is expected that graduates will be capable of functioning as professional care givers in a variety of health care settings, be able to demonstrate their ability to apply advanced problem-solving skills to patient care, and be equipped to respond to an increasingly complex health care environment.
