Synopsis

This course explores the Primary Health Care role of nurses as independent practitioners and as participants in multidisciplinary and intersectoral practice. Students assess communities in urban, rural, and remote contexts. Strengths, limitations, and strategies for change are identified through appraisal of these communities. Collaborative findings form the basis of a student-designed research proposal, which supports the notions of empowerment, social justice, and equity for all people.
