Introduction
CNA253 (Professional Practice 2) and CNA255 (Professional Practice 3) are taught simultaneously. The units present specific areas of health and illness through consideration of the physiology and pathophysiology typically observed during various disease states. Drawing on these bioscientific understandings, clinical reasoning is used to determine appropriate nursing interventions, and plan the nursing management of clients experiencing acute and chronic health problems. A case study approach is used which incorporates learning related to legal and ethical issues, cultural competence and building therapeutic relationships. Professional Practice 3 focuses on acute and chronic health problems related to endocrine health/diabetes, renal health, reproductive health and cancer/oncology.
