COURSE DESCRIPTION This course provides theoretical knowledge and emphasizes psychomotor skills necessary to provide selected advanced practice nursing interventions utilized in the care of young, middle, and older critically ill adults in acute care settings. Focus is on the provision of safe and effective advanced practice nursing care to diverse populations.
COURSE OBJECTIVES Upon completion of this course, the student will be able to:
1. Demonstrate proficiency in selected advanced practice nursing diagnostic skills and procedures for use with young, middle, and older adults.
2. Apply principles of safety when providing selected advanced practice nursing diagnostic skills and procedures.
3. Demonstrate utilization of critical thinking and evidenced based practice in providing and interpreting selected advanced practice nursing diagnostic skills and procedures for use with young, middle, and older adults.
COURSE/LABORATORY SCHEDULE
This course uses web-based, asynchronous communications. Eight modules will be available to complete via the canvas site and one in person skills lab, please see the weekly schedule for due dates of quizzes and assignments.
Our class sessions may be audio visually recorded for students in the class to refer back and for enrolled students who are unable to attend live. Students who participate with their camera engaged or utilize a profile image are agreeing to have their video or image recorded. If you are unwilling to consent to have your profile or video image recorded, be sure to keep your camera off and do not use a profile image. Likewise, students who un-mute during class and participate orally are agreeing to have their voices recorded. If you are not willing to consent to have your voice recorded during class, you will need to keep your mute button activated and communicate exclusively using the "chat" feature, which allows students to type questions and comments live. The chat will not be recorded or shared. As in all courses, unauthorized recording and unauthorized sharing of recorded materials is prohibited.

• This course has been assigned a physical classroom with enough capacity to maintain physical distancing (6 feet between individuals) requirements. Please utilize designated seats and maintain appropriate spacing between students. Please do not move desks or stations.
• Sanitizing supplies are available in the classroom if you wish to wipe down your desks prior to sitting down and at the end of the class.
• Follow your instructor’s guidance on how to enter and exit the classroom. Practice physical distancing to the extent possible when entering and exiting the classroom.

EVALUATION METHODS/COURSE GRADE CALCULATION
|Module 1-8 Quizzes |See course schedule |40% |
|Module 1-8 Assignment Completion |See course schedule |40% |
|Satisfactory performance in person skills | |20% |
|laboratory (October 20th) | | |
|Total | |100 % |
Students are expected to participate in the activities and discussions as listed in the course syllabus and on the course web-site. Timeframes for the posting and receiving of materials are listed on the course web-site and weekly class schedule. Faculty will post grades within 14 days of the quizzes, exams and assignment due dates.
MAKE UP POLICY
There will be no make-ups for missed quizzes or assignments. If a student fails to complete a quiz or assignment, the average scores of the completed quizzes or assignments will be used to calculate the final quiz or assignment average. Only a MAJOR personal, extreme health emergency involving the student or immediate (spouse, children) family will be considered as a reasonable excuse from taking a schedule quiz. Written rationale from a health care provider may be required.
Absence from the in class skills session results in important diagnostic procedures and skills that are not learned. It is extremely difficult to replace the “hands on” learning experiences at this session. If the October 20th hands on lab must be missed for a personal or family emergency or sickness, the student must make independent arrangements to replace this learning activity and may be asked to attend a skills lab during at another time with a different cohort. Alternative arrangements will need to be approved by Course Coordinator.
