Students are introduced to the theoretical concept of caring for clients within a primary health care context. Using primary health care as a framework, nursing concepts are explored and strategies for nursing care considered. Students begin to develop a conceptual framework to guide their nursing practice while working with clients in long term care settings. Semester hours of credit: 6 Hours per week: Lecture: 3 Lab: 2 Other - Clinical Practice: 55 hours total. 06-01-2023-10-04-2023 Lecture Monday, Friday 10:30AM - 11:45AM, Health Sciences Bldg, Room 104

Nursing 1030 examines fundamental principles and skills for nursing practice. Students are introduced to Primary Health Care and to the Prince Edward Island Conceptual Model of Nursing: A Nursing Perspective of Primary Health Care. Through this theoretical framework, nursing concepts are explored and strategies for nursing care considered. Students are introduced to beginning communication, assessment, and psychomotor skills through active participation in online and onsite lectures, lab and clinical seminar settings. Students have an opportunity to apply theoretical knowledge to clinical practice by partnering with healthy older adults living independently in the community and in long term care settings. Semester hours of credit: 9 Hours per week: Lecture: 3 Lab: 2 Other - Clinical Practice: 86 hours total Restriction: Student must be admitted into the Acclerated Nursing Program and have completed all non-nursing required courses. 04-01-2023-13-04-2023 Lecture Monday 01:30PM - 04:30PM, SDU Main Bldg, Room 211 (more)...

This elective course covers three components: lobster health, finfish health and ecosystem health. The lobster component reviews health issues of lobsters with an emphasis on diseases of impounded lobsters and associated risk factors, and offers a laboratory on sampling procedures for diagnostic purposes. The finfish component addresses production and health related diseases in food fish with an emphasis on farmed salmon and coldwater marine fish. Topics include disease surveillance, disease risk factors, health management methods, and interactions between farmed and wild fish populations. The ecosystem health component introduces the principles of ecohealth using current examples from agriculture, aquaculture and wildlife. Five-week module with three hours of lecture per week. Restriction: Student must have third year standing in the DVM program. 03-01-2023-03-02-2023
