This course is designed to provide students with an opportunity to integrate advanced nursing competencies with population-based public health strategies. It builds on knowledge and skills from previous courses in public health nursing. The course equips students with skills for advanced community-based interventions and outcomes measurement, while emphasizing health promotion and disease prevention interventions across the life span. Weekly seminars on advanced concepts in public health will be held. Regular meetings with the faculty-supervisor, and individual projects will be essential elements of the course.
