NRSG 4050 - Assessment Across Life Span

Institution:

Weber State University

Subject:

Nursing

Description:

This course provides the theory requisite for the systematic examination and analysis of subjective and objective health assessment data obtained during the health assessment process. The health status of a client will be determined through the process of differential analysis of both the anecdotal evidence provided by the client and empirical evidence gathered during the physical examination. With this evidence, students will learn to apply the scientific process of formulating and testing hypothetical diagnoses. The overall purpose will be focused upon developing strategies and skills to assess the health care needs of people across the life span. Students are challenged to identify normal assessment findings and critically analyze variations from normal.
