- Course objectives
- Individual Nursing Practice I is a practical subject that follows the course Nursing Practice I. It integrates knowledge of the theory and practice of nursing, basic scientific disciplines and natural, social and behavioral sciences. The course takes the form of direct and indirect patient care, in accordance with the applicable legislation, and enables students to apply the theoretical knowledge and practical skills acquired by studying theoretical-practical disciplines in the conditions of a health care provider. The objectives of the course are identified at the cognitive, psychomotor and attitude levels: knowledge of health promotion and disease prevention; consolidation of nursing activities by implementing the nursing process in terms of medical practice; realization of individualized nursing care based on knowledge of biopsychosocial and spiritual needs of patients; strengthening professional skills and habits; acquiring work organization, independence and teamwork; formation of professional characteristics of a nurse; consolidation of communicative skills and acquisition of work with nursing and medical documentation. Practice is focused on health promotion and disease prevention, consolidation of nursing, diagnostic and therapeutic activities according to the principles of evidence-based nursing (Evidence Based Nursing). It is implemented in faculty hospitals in Brno or at health service providers abroad. Practice takes place in inpatient and outpatient departments of internal medicine, in geriatric care workplaces, and in long-term and follow-up care workplaces. Students work under the supervision of mentors in continuous operation, completed internships, activities, performances and other activities in the framework of nursing practice recorded in the Logbook of nursing practice (Logbook).
