Examination of the health and wellness activities of individuals and their families from birth to age 20. Emphasizes theories regarding beginning families and child-rearing, well-child assessment, and common health problems in children and adolescents. Explores compromises to physical, social and mental health common during these ages and the impact of these compromises on the individual and family are explored. Professional nursing activities that promote and restore optimal health/wellness are the focal points for didactic and clinical experiences. Through the use of various problem-solving methods, students can apply didactic information in actual patient situations and will be guided in bridging nursing theory and practice and in making decisions regarding nursing care. Clinical activities occur in a myriad of nursing practice settings which are both hospital and community-based.
