Objectives

The course aims for students to acquire extended knowledge and skills which are integrated in the subjects of Psychiatric Care and Somatic Care, with a specialisation in evidence-based nursing of people of different ages who have difficulties protecting their own dignity, integrity, and autonomy.

Learning outcomes

Upon completion of the course, students are expected to be able to:
1 independently and in cooperation with the patient and his or her relatives apply all phases of the care process in the nursing of the patient in different contexts
2 independently carry out care conversations and reflect upon their significance
3 identify and analyse ethical problems in nursing in relation to a holistic view on a human being, and motivate and suggest alternative nursing efforts to protect a person’s dignity, integrity, and autonomy
4 motivate and apply nursing efforts in accordance with relevant regulations and recent research
5 plan for palliative care and nursing on the basis of an evidence-based analysis of the patient’s experiences, needs, and symptoms
6 exhibit self-knowledge and a professional approach towards patients, relatives, and co-workers, and prove that they are able to identify their own need for more knowledge and qualifications
7 account for and evaluate experiences of leading the daily nursing work while doing clinical practice, and show that they are able to contribute to teamwork and cooperation within and between professions.
8 describe and analyse learning processes in the organisation
9 exhibit an ability to supervise and educate patients, relatives and nursing staff
10 critically examine and analyse the nurse’s leadership and cooperation in quality and development work in relation to official steering documents
11 assess and analyse the health status of patients with complex diseases and suggest medical treatment within the area of their nursing qualifications
12 observe, identify and counteract complications related to disease, care and treatment
13 handle and administer drugs in accordance with rules and regulations, and observe and register both effect and possible side effects of the administered drugs
14 account for the occurrence of common diseases/public health problems in terms of trends and risk factors, with a focus on socioeconomic inequality, and suggest and carry out proactive measures to improve health at the levels of individuals and the entire population
15 identify ethical problems in public health efforts and account for the conflict between the ethical principles
16 apply theoretical knowledge and skills in S-HLR.
17 describe terms, definitions and implementation of evidence-based nursing

For more information on the clinical practice component, see the study guide.

Specific requirements

A passing grade for all first- and second-year courses in the Nursing Programme at Mälardalen University, or the equivalent.
Please note, in order to be eligible for the course, the requirements for special eligibility to be met no later than three weeks before the course starts.

Examination

Group task (GRU1), 1.5 credits, active participation in oral group examination based on learning objectives 17, 18. Caring Sciences. Marks Pass (G).
Seminar (SEM1), 0.5 credits, active participation in seminars focused on learning objectives 9. Health Care Education . Marks Pass (G).
Assignment (INL1), 0.5 credits, individual written home exam, based on learning objectives 14-15. Public Health Sciences. Marks Pass (G).

Practical examination (PRA3), 0.5 credits, S-HLR individual, oral and practical examination and active participation focused on learning objective 16. Medical Science. Marks Pass (G).

For PRA1 and PRA2 there are limited opportunities for examination. For clinical practice where there is a limited number of trainee posts, only one re-exam opportunity/one replacement is offered, unless there are special reasons. (See also Rules and regulations for examinations in first- and second-cycle education at Mälardalen University, 17 june 2014).

A student who is found obviously unfitting for the education programme at the workplace where the clinical practice is done can be failed before the course/course component is completed. This also applies if Mälardalen University finds out in other ways that there are special reasons for terminating the course of study.

Rules and regulations for examination

A student who has a certificate from MDU regarding a disability has the opportunity to submit a request for supportive measures during written examinations or other forms of examination, in accordance with the Rules and Regulations for Examinations at First-cycle and Second-cycle Level at Mälardalen University (2020/1655). It is the examiner who takes decisions on any supportive measures, based on what kind of certificate is issued, and in that case which measures are to be applied.

Suspicions of attempting to deceive in examinations (cheating) are reported to the Vice-Chancellor, in accordance with the Higher Education Ordinance, and are examined by the University’s Disciplinary Board. If the Disciplinary Board considers the student to be guilty of a disciplinary offence, the Board will take a decision on disciplinary action, which will be a warning or suspension.
