Learning Outcomes of the Curricular Unit:
- To deepen knowledge, attitudes and competences for the use of conceptual tools that allow it to critically analyze nursing care; - To develop skills in the scope of autonomous and interdependent interventions of the professional nursing practice to the person; - To reveal competence to reconcile nursing care to the person, applying the nursing process using classified language; - To develop interpersonal skills for the establishment of a therapeutic relationship; - To demonstrate knowledge, attitudes and competencies to support decision-making in nursing, developing a critical judgment; - To critically analyze the intervention in the nursing care to obtain gains in health of the person; - To prescribe nursing interventions in the field of health promotion and maintenance; - To integrate the knowledge of other curricular units, for the conception of nursing care to the person.
Syllabus:
1. Factors that influence health: 1.1 Health in the adult person: promotion and maintenance of health 1.2 Approach to health problems: breathing, circulation, body temperature, volume of liquids, elimination, nutrition, digestion, integuments, rest, sensations, motor activity and death. 1.3 Nursing interventions 1.4 Identification and resolution of problems 1.5 Nursing care in drug preparation and administration 2. Laboratory practice: Collection of products for laboratory analysis, monitoring of capillary blood glucose and ketonemia Chemical properties of urine, placement and removal of nasogastric tube, peripheral venous puncture, preparation and administration of therapy: oral, topical, enteral, parenteral, insulin therapy and blood products, diet enteric, dressing regimen, aspiration of secretions, oxygen therapy, postmortem care 3. Decision process in Nursing 3.1 Identification and resolution of problems 3.2 Development of critical thinking 4. Clinical Training
Demonstration of the Syllabus Coherence with the Curricular Unit's Objectives:
The curricular contents of this curricular unit are designed to allow the critical development on the autonomy and the decision process in the nursing care. The thematic areas are applied in order to emphasize the conceptualization process of the nurse in planning care for the whole person, training decision making and problem solving in nursing. This second contact will deepen the competencies of the use of the nursing process, develop knowledge and skills to acquire competences in the field of instrumental, interpersonal and systemic competences. The presentation of the contents culminates with the accomplishment of a clinical teaching of observation to conceptualize the nursing care to the person as a whole, using critical thinking as a strategy promoting autonomy and personal and professional development.
Teaching Methodologies (Including Evaluation):
For the purposes intended, it is used teaching methodologies expositive, interrogative and simulation. Theoretical classes are essentially expositive and interactive. Theoretical-practical classes are intended to deepen the themes taught with the aid of suitable didactic material (simulators, models, videos) and for the demonstration, execution of techniques and procedures that will be later developed by students in simulated practices, under guidance and teacher supervision. The clinical teaching of observation will allow conceptualizing nursing care to the whole person, using critical thinking as a strategy promoting autonomy and personal and professional development. The continuous assessment regime consists of two moments of written test (50%), evaluation of laboratory practices (40%) and development of an individual case study in clinical teaching of observation (10%).The student must obtain 9.5 every moment of evaluation.
Demonstration of the Coherence between the Teaching Methodologies and the Learning Outcomes:
The teaching methodology focused on the theoretical, theoretical-practical and practical information of the topics covered, including the use of appropriate didactic resources such as videos and manipulation of anatomical models, allows the student to acquire knowledge, skills and attitudes for the conception of nursing care to the person as a whole. The simulation and the presentation of case studies make possible an adequate transfer of these contents for the development of general care nurse competences. Namely, through a week of clinical observation teaching at the UFP Hospital-School to learn how to build the nursing identity process. It is expected that this moment will be supervised by one of the teachers of the curricular unit, promoting an integrated view of theoretical concepts, basic instruments, techniques and procedures developed in the theoretical and practical component and laboratory.
