Clinical
Tuesdays- Sections 003, 006, 008, 009

The following schedule lists the units to be introduced and tested each week. Students are to complete the Self Directed Learning Packet BEFORE each lab session. This includes watching the NUR 104 Skills Video at home (if assigned in the SDLP),  and answering the critical thinking questions. Students who are unprepared will not be allowed to attend lab and will be assigned a make-up time by the lab instructor.

The lab grade is determined by averaging the grades on the lab tests and the computer assignment Ethical Issues for the Elderly (10 points). The average must be 75% in order to pass the Laboratory portion of NUR 104. The lab tests will be taken from the reading assignments for each lab.

All performance tests must be passed in order to pass the Laboratory portion of NUR 104. Students are allowed to repeat performance tests until they are mastered.
