NURS 112 - Registered Nursing As Scholarly Practice


Credits: 3 Total Hours: 45
Restricted to students in Practical Nurse to Baccalaureate of Science Nursing Bridge
Learners engage with an inquiry approach to Registered Nursing (RN) practice. Course activities facilitate the transition from LPN to RN practice through examining philosophical and theoretical perspectives underpinning RN practice. Scholarly practices are introduced, for inquiry-oriented professional nursing. Transition theory, the CNA Codes of Ethics, CRNBC Professional Standards, and select nursing theories are incorporated. Reflective practice, the nursing process, and ethical frameworks will contribute to the development of clinical decision-making competency. Learners will continue to develop their personal vision of professional nursing practice and conceptualize their contribution to healthcare through a review of historical, political, and socioeconomic forces shaping the profession.
