NURS 510 - Health Care Delivery Systems: Political, Social, and Economic Influences

(3 cr) This theory course is designed to further develop the knowledge, skills, values, meaning, and experiences necessary for assuming a leadership role in health care delivery services.  The focus is on an in-depth assessment of socially and culturally diverse populations.  Students explore the physiological and psychological variants in health which influence client outcomes.  Content includes the analysis of common health disparities and the identification of evidence-based strategies to effect change.  Health services delivery systems are analyzed for appropriateness in meeting the dynamic and ever-changing health profile of clients.  This is the last course in the RN-to-BSN sequence, and is held as graduate credit on the graduate transcript.
