Utilizes the RAM nursing process to promote adaptation in young, middle-age, and elderly adults. Focuses on physiological and behavioral deviations associated with ineffective human adaptive responses seen in compensatory and/or compromised health states related to oxygenation (respiratory, cardiac); fluid, electrolyte, and acid-base balance (renal-urinary); activity/rest (musculoskeletal); endocrine function; and neurologic functions. Incorporates research findings in promotion of adaptive, physiologic, self concept, role function, and interdependence responses in the adult. Clinical experiences occur in a variety of health care settings. Pre-requisites: NURS 320, 330, 340, 350; Corequisites: NURS 310, 375
