| Description: |
This course focuses on providing advanced chronic care for clients at all stages in
life and with several types of physiological and psychological processes. The course
also explores end-of-life issues related to chronic illness. Learners will synthesize
knowledge from earlier courses related to health promotion and prevention and move
toward providing client-centered care for people suffering from complex chronic illnesses.
Learners will explore the aging process and discuss end-of-life issues as well as
explore co-morbidities while managing health outcomes for chronic care patients, along
with psychological conditions. Direct focused client care experiential learning is
included in the course to give learners the opportunity to gain experience with many
of these more complex chronic conditions. |
