NURS 4260 Population Health Nursing Theory
Learners apply conceptual and scientific frameworks of population health to understand the impact of multiple determinants (i.e., socio-cultural, economic, political and environmental) that shape the health of individuals, families and communities. Learners identify the nurses role in the core functions of public health and integrate lessons in health promotion and disease prevention. Learners develop foundational skills in community assessment and epidemiological methods to examine health inequities and vulnerabilities through social justice and ecological lenses. Learners identify opportunities to bridge population health and clinical care to meet the health needs of individuals, families, and populations.
