HUM 200 - Nursing: A Critical Voice in Healthcare Transformation


3 Credits

Nurses are the primary providers of hospital patient care, and they deliver most of the nation's long-term care.

Nurses' roles range from direct patient care and case management to establishing nursing practice standards, developing quality assurance procedures, and directing complex nursing care systems. And yet, the nurse voice is seldom heard in the debate about the transformation of the U.S. healthcare system. This course is intended to provide the nursing professional with the knowledge and skills to add their leadership and voice to the direction of change in healthcare.
