GNUR441 Basic Skills and Physical Assessment

GNUR 441 Basic Skills and Physical Assessment.  In this course, learners will be provided with a structured environment in which to learn and demonstrate Health Care Assistant (HCA) (write out the full term the first time you use it, for RN as well.) and Registered Nurse (RN) level skills related to the provision of personal care and physical assessment. Classes will consist of theory and development of psychomotor skills using simulated clients in the lab setting. Students will receive formative feedback as they are exposed to facets of the Canadian Healthcare System and provincial regulatory standards and competencies for both HCA and RN level work. Skills will be appraised at the end of the course in preparation for clinical learning experiences.
