PN-427

Pharmacology II

This course builds upon the concepts presented in PN 328 (Pharmacology I) and introduces select medication classifications as they relate to patients experiencing chronic illness and complex disease across the lifespan. The learner will study the mechanism of action, therapeutic indications, and nursing responsibilities (including drug monitoring, the management of adverse drug effects, and applicable health teaching). Furthermore, this course will detail the professional implications of medication administration as learners prepare for their pre-graduate preceptorship experience. This course will support the knowledge, skills, judgment, and nursing attitudes required during all simulation (scenarios) experiences that occur throughout the Practical Nursing program.
