Aim: 

To prepare nurses who can competently care for individuals in a medical care setting within the New Zealand Health system. This course is based on the belief that nursing is essentially a practice discipline. It builds on, and enables the student to integrate knowledge from, the prerequisite and co-requisite papers. This knowledge draws from the empirico-analytic and interpretive paradigms. Interpretive enquiry seeks to understand and find meaning within the clinical experience. In this course, practice is valued and reflected upon. Nursing practice will reflect current research findings, and students will integrate nursing theories into a professional framework for beginning nursing practice.
