NURS 612 - Advanced Health Promotion

(3 credits)

In this course, students will analyze the theory and evidence supporting advanced nursing roles in disease prevention and promotion of health and well-being. They will utilize evidence-based strategies and techniques that respect the diversity of individuals, families, communities, and populations and will explore determinants of health. The course emphasizes evidence-based, person-centered approaches, interprofessional collaborative practice, and diversity, equity, and inclusion to support positive health outcomes for individuals, families, communities, and populations. A community-based co-requisite practicum allows students to apply this holistic, health promotion perspective in the advanced nursing role outside of traditional biomedical settings. Prerequisite: Admission to graduate nursing program. Corequisite: NURS 613 - Advanced Health Promotion Clinical. Grade only. Offered each semester as needed.
