NURS 4673: Holistic Nursing: Care of the Critically Ill

This six-credit course focuses on the care of individuals experiencing critical/life-threatening health alterations from a holistic nursing perspective and is grounded in the University philosophy that nursing is a healing ministry focused on body, mind and spirit. A conceptual framework derived from nursing science, life, behavioral and social sciences, humanities, theology and philosophy provides a foundation for clinical reasoning in providing nursing care and supporting the healing process for individuals across the lifespan who are experiencing critical illness and their families. Students who receive a course failure, including a dosage calculation, clinical, and/or didactic course failure in NURS  4673, NURS 4572, or NURS 3375, are not permitted to continue in NURS 4574. Students will have to take an incomplete in NURS 4574 until passing grades are earned in all ABSN courses.
