This unit focuses on the essential concepts and skills required to deliver safe and effective nursing care in medical and surgical settings. Students will build on the knowledge gained in NUR253 and apply theoretical concepts to common acute and chronic conditions and formulate nursing interventions that support optimal patient outcomes. The unit emphasises the National Safety and Quality Health Service (NSQHS) Standards, patient safety principles, and the legal and ethical responsibilities of Registered Nurses in healthcare environments. Through theoretical learning using case studies students will develop their ability to assess and respond to changes in patients' conditions to create person-centred culturally safe care.
