This course introduces the student to basic nursing concepts. The emphasis is placed on scientific nursing practice, basic human needs, and the care of clients with diverse needs.

The nursing process is the organizing framework for the care provided to meet human needs. Students will develop a strong baseline of nursing knowledge and skills for future nursing practice.
