Course Description
In this course, students examine the process of scientific inquiry, knowledge generation, utilization, and
dissemination of evidence into advanced nursing practice in order to propose quality improvement
initiatives that advance the delivery of safe, high-quality care for patient populations. Students critically
evaluate evidence, including scientific findings from the biopsychosocial fields, epidemiology, biostatistics,
genetics, and genomics, and apply levels of evidence and theoretical frameworks to design culturally
appropriate clinical prevention interventions and population-based care that reduce risks, prevent disease,
and promote health and well-being. Students also consider strategies to evaluate health policy and
advocacy issues, the state of health care delivery, patient-centered care, and ethical principles related to
health beliefs, health promotion, and risk reduction for diverse populations. Students apply these strategies
to work towards recognizing gaps in nursing and health care knowledge, identifying potential solutions or
innovations for those gaps, planning and implementing practice changes, and evaluating the outcomes in
order to improve practice. Prerequisite: NUR-513.
