Women’s Health III

Graduate / Professional

This course is designed to build competencies in gynecologic/reproductive/sexual health care from adolescence through menopause. Building on the foundational content and competencies introduced in the previous semester, this course focuses on the evaluation and management of more complex gynecologic/reproductive/ sexual health conditions. Through the process of working with this content, students will also engage with a variety of advanced practice nursing competencies such as appraising evidence and ways of knowing to formulate and defend an approach to practice; fostering caring relationships; employing context driven, advanced reasoning to the diagnostic and decision making processes; and facilitating complex conversations and decisions with patients. This course is required for all nurse-midwifery, women’s health nurse practitioner, family nurse practitioner, and adult/gerontologic primary care nurse practitioner students in the first year of specialization. Open to others, with the permission of the instructor. Two hours per week for eight weeks. Prerequisite: NURS 7210 . 1 Course cr HTBA
