This unit is one of three units within the Clinical Studies in Nursing 2 cluster. Students are provided with learning opportunities to develop a systematic body of knowledge and skill related specifically to the assessment and management of people experiencing acute episodic illness in hospital. Students will be exposed to the professional and social contexts of nursing and focus learning on the identification of risk, the management of symptoms, and the impact of hospitalisation on patients’ functional abilities. Students will have opportunity to apply and integrate knowledge and skills learned in this unit and previous units during a four (4) week clinical placement. -- Course Website
