Introduction
In this course, students will further develop their knowledge of people’s fundamental needs and resources and how health deficits influence these. Reactions, experiences, symptoms and signs of health deficits are key aspects of the course. Students will learn to observe and assess patients’ fundamental needs and resources. They will also gain experience of communicating with patients and their next-of-kin. Students will observe and reflect on the nursing care provided to patients and next-of-kin.
In addition, the students will participate in the interdisciplinary teaching activity INTER1100 ‘One child - different arenas’, scope corresponding to 1.5 credits in the beginning of January. Relevant topics include the welfare state as a framework for girls’ and boys’ development and learning, growing up in a society characterised by cultural and social complexity, children and young people's everyday lives and social participation, the rights of children and adolescents, and explorative conversations with and observations of children and young people. The learning outcomes expected after completion of INTER1100 are marked with *. https://www.oslomet.no/forskning/forskningsprosjekter/interact
