NURS 485 - Population Health


4 Credit(s)

The focus of this course is clinical prevention and population health across the life span. Biological, psychological, sociocultural, environmental, political, and economic factors that influence population health and illness are explored, including the contribution of these factors to health disparities. Because the health of a population is contingent upon the health of the individuals, families, and groups that exist within it, both individual and population focused, evidence-based interventions are discussed. Nursing interventions focus on primary and secondary levels of prevention within the context of social justice. (3 credits theory; 1 credit clinical; 42 hours clinical).
Prerequisite(s): Successful completion of junior level courses.
