NURS 160 - Relational Practice I

Credits: 3 Total Hours: 45

Restricted to students in Baccalaureate of Science in Nursing
Learners will develop self-awareness, critical reflection, and therapeutic communication skills, and explore the multiple factors that influence their own capacity to be in caring relation to others (individuals, family groups, populations, communities, and the environment). Learners examine values, beliefs, and attitudes to promote compassionate, culturally safe health care. Learners apply communication strategies for working with an inter-professional team. Learners are introduced to principles of self-care, professional responsibilities, relational competence, and relational inquiry, drawing on curriculum foundational perspectives and course concepts to explicate meaning. Learners apply theories of loss and grief to aspects of nursing, as preparation for practice placements.
