Introduction
In this course, students will learn about the key theories, concepts and values of nursing, and what defines nursing as an independent profession. Human beings’ fundamental needs and resources, and what promotes, impedes and maintains balance in people's fundamental needs are central aspects of the course. This forms the basis for the nurse’s duties both in the municipal and specialist health service. Furthermore, ethical perspectives and assessment, action and decision-making processes in nursing will be studied, as well as the relational responsibility of the nurse.
