NRSG 315 - Conceptual Foundations of Professional Nursing for RNs (4)

Prerequisites: ENGL 101 , ENGL 102 , CPTR 105 , CHEM 101   or equivalents, a current RN License, and admission to the program.
Corequisite: NRSG 355 , NRSG 365  
14 week course.
This course focuses on concepts of professionalism, communication skills, and issues related to Baccalaureate-level nursing practice, nursing models, and the formation of a personal philosophy of nursing. This course, as others in the curriculum, anticipates that students, having completed computer and English classes, are able to both cite references and format papers using the APA style as a foundation for producing scholarly papers in other writing courses. The course includes four credit hours of theory (56 clock-hours) and meets the requirement for a written communication course (see Communications Requirements ).
