92011 Nursing Relationships

6cp; 10 weeks, 4hpw, on campus; availability: BN (standard program) or BN BA (standard program) students only
Undergraduate

This subject contributes to the objectives of the Bachelor of Nursing by recognising the centrality of interpersonal processes to the practice of nursing. Two curriculum themes are developed: becoming and being a nurse; and the interrelationships between law, ethics and resources in nursing practice. The process of critical reflection is developed and used to foster a beginning nursing identity, effective relationship skills and therapeutic agency. Aspects of law and ethics are introduced as frameworks within which nursing relationships are conducted. This subject enables students to broaden their understanding of nursing as a relationship-based profession that is enhanced by the thoughful and therapeutic application of 'self'.
