This course explores major elements of specified disease processes at the cellular, tissue, and organ levels and the pharmacological agents used to treat, prevent or cure diseases across the lifespan. Students examine processes that interfere with human health and underlie disease, address pathological changes in the body, and integrate this knowledge with pharmacological therapy and safe medication management. Nurses must have an understanding of pathophysiology and a current knowledge of pharmacology in order to optimally provide for the health needs and safety of patients.
Open to School of Nursing majors only.
