NUR 567 - Advanced Health Assessment

Basic nursing skills serve as a foundation for development of complex interviewing and advanced physical examination techniques. Through comprehensive history, physical, psychosocial, and cultural assessments students gain experience interpreting and integrating findings from the health history and physical assessment of individuals across the lifespan to establish initial diagnostic testing considerations. Emphasis on appropriate and adequate collection of data from the patient history and physical examination relevant to well and ill presentations guides the student’s emerging skills associated with differential diagnosis development and clinical reasoning.
