Family Primary Care Advanced Practice Nursing II Practicum

3 credits

In this second precepted family nurse practitioner primary care course, students integrate didactic learning into clinical practice settings and refine the clinical application of person-centered primary care. A trauma-informed, ethical, and humanistic approach is applied while caring for diverse populations. Critical analysis of data and diagnostic reasoning is used to provide evidence-based, cost-effective care to address the acute, chronic, and complex health needs of individuals across the lifespan. Advanced clinical decision-making and increasing practice autonomy are emphasized. Clinical faculty facilitate and assess learning through preceptor collaboration, clinical seminars, and review of clinical documentation.
