Nursing
NURS 237: Mental Health and Illness Laboratory

Provides opportunities for students to utilize the nursing process in a simulated laboratory setting to understand the care of patients experiencing major disruptions in psycho/social functioning. Through the use of active learning modalities, including classroom presentations and group work, students are encouraged to scrutinize their beliefs regarding psychiatric illness. Students will explore nurse/patient relationships and the importance of therapeutic communication, and examine psychotherapeutic approaches designed to meet the bio/psycho/social/cultural and spiritual needs of patients.
