SYKPPRA70IB Prevention and Rehabilitation in Home-based Healthcare Service Course description

In this course, the student will learn about nursing for patients with chronic diseases, loss of function after injury or disease, intellectual disabilities and other complex diseases. The students will encounter patients in their own homes or in residential care homes. They will gain experience of communicating and interacting with patients and next-of-kin. Challenges related to key patient phenomena, functional impairment, mastery, dignity and user participation will be central aspects of the course. Different perspectives on nursing in a care and rehabilitation context are analysed with the home as the arena, at the intersection between paternalism and autonomy, as well as different cultural values. Interprofessional and intersectoral cooperation and service development and innovation are also included in the course.

In addition, the students taking this course in the spring semester will participate in the interdisciplinary teaching activity INTER1300 ‘Interprofessional collaboration on and with children, young people and their families’, with a scope corresponding to 1.5 credits carried out in the beginning of January. The theme will be how different professions can cooperate on and with children and adolescents. This includes a theoretical understanding of and research-based knowledge about interprofessional cooperation about and with children, adolescents and their families. Examples of the students’ practical training periods in particular, and from interprofessional cooperation in different practical fields of practice in general, will be part of the work. The learning outcomes expected after completion of INTER1300 are marked with *.
