Course Description:
This course, the student is introduced to the art and science of nursing; the philosophy and the conceptual
framework of the Everest nursing program. Students are also introduced to core components of Associate
Degree Nursing with a focus on professionalism, assessment and communication. The nursing process is
introduced as a tool to assist students to utilize critical thinking in formulating nursing decisions. In the Nursing
Skills Lab, students will learn how to conduct a basic health interview and physical examination with clients in
preparation for clinical experiences in Fundamentals II. Characteristics of the individual, which include human
development, common health problems, human needs, cultural diversity and considerations, are introduced.
Students will practice basic nursing adult client care in simulated scenarios. This course provides the basic
platform of knowledge, skills and caring upon which subsequent nursing courses are built.
Grades and understanding course content are dependent upon consistent study and attendance. Students
are expected to designate an average of 108+ hours for out-of-class study and assignments for this course.
