Provides an opportunity for experiential learning designed to develop nursing skills unique to the care of children and families from an individual, family and aggregate perspective. The learner promotes healthy growth and development in children, shapes safe, supportive environments, provides anticipatory guidance to families, uses appropriate community resources, and provides evidenced-based, clinically competent therapeutic interventions for children who are healthy or experiencing an illness. The experiences in this course also foster professional development of accountability and responsibility for learning, identifying ethical and legal dimensions of practice, and integrating nursing care with that of other health care providers.
