STUDENT REQUIREMENTS AND METHODS OF EVALUATION: ATTENDANCE: Students are to attend lecture, college lab, clinical lab, and/or alternative experiences promptly as scheduled. Absenteeism and tardiness will be dealt with according to the nursing handbook policies. If you are late for class, you are marked absent unless you inform the instructor of your tardiness by the end of class time. Note: (from the nursing handbook) Students must inform the clinical instructor by phone if a circumstance prevents attendance in the clinical experience. The classroom door will be locked at the designated class start time. If a student is late, they will not be admitted to the classroom until the classroom is opened for break. . PARTICIPATION: Students are expected to attend class/lab/seminar prepared with reading assignments, podcasts reviewed, and/or written assignments completed. Active participation in class discussions, lab activities, and clinical experiences are expected. Due to the vast amount of information to be learned, not all unit objectives may be addressed in class and labs. However, since the content most likely will be tested, the student is responsible to complete those objectives. Students are responsible for all materials covered during their absence. IMPORTANT: The lecture notes serve as an outline for the lecture material. Students are expected to bring the COMPLETED lecture notes to class. The student must read and fill in the lecture notes PRIOR to class. Students who present to class unprepared will jeopardize their success because they will find it very difficult to follow the lecture, discussion, and classroom activities. GRADING POLICIES: 1. 80% of CLASSROOM THEORY: Your grade is based on cumulative total points, which is then recorded as a percentage of the total points for the course: # of SN test points = SN percentage (course grade) # of total test points (Do not average the percentages of each test!) The grading scale is in accordance with the Nursing Handbook. Test questions may be generated from any component of this course. Please note: The grade for this theory course with a clinical component is based only on the five exam scores. No other assignments for this course will be used to determine grade. Students are expected to take all tests/quizzes on the designated days. When missing a test/quiz, the SN must notify the lecture instructor within 24 hours about a make-up test/quiz and make an appointment with the Learning Center to take the test/quiz, failure to do so will result in a zero (0). Failure to take the test/quiz on the designated day will result in a zero (0) for the test/quiz. Therefore if you change your appointment, then you must notify the instructor of the change. These missed tests/quizzes need to be completed before the next scheduled test/quiz. Students who missed more than one scheduled exam date will be held to the policy outlined in the Nursing Handbook. If a student prematurely ends the exam, the grade computed is the final grade. Students will not be allowed to retake the exam or complete the test items not answered. No exceptions will be 6 made. Dishonesty/cheating are not accepted. dishonesty/cheating will be followed. The college policy regarding academic Grades will be posted ASAP in Blackboard grade book. Grades will not be given out over the phone or via e-mail. Student Enrichment Plan: To maximize student success, a student enrichment plan has been put into place for each unit exam. Please review these guidelines carefully as they will apply following each exam. a. Any student receiving an 80% or below on any unit exam is required to meet with an instructor to review the exam. The lecture instructor will notify the students by e-mail with who the student is to meet with (Dr. Francisco or Mrs. Bruch). The test review must be completed within three (3) school days of the exam. b. During the exam review, the student will complete a test analysis to identify any patterns or concerns with testing or content. c. Any student not successful on the exam (below 80%) a prescribed content enrichment activity may be assigned. This must be completed with 48 hours of assignment. This completion will be the ‘ticket to test’ for the next exam. d. Failure to complete any step of this enrichment plan will result in a Need for Professional Development and an assignment of further enrichment activities. Test reviews will not be conducted during class time. Students wanting to review their exam will need to make an appointment with the lecture instructor. Note taking or recording is not allowed during the test review. Review is to be done within one week of the test after all SN have taken the test. When challenging answers to test questions, the SN must present written support from three recent professional sources. This must be given to the instructor for review within one week following the exam review. 2. Passing grade (100%) on a MATH QUIZ. 3. Satisfactory WRITTEN PAPERS: (As designated by portfolio grid) All course papers must be completed in order to achieve a passing course grade. Papers designated for this course include: Non-Preceptor Clinical Rotations: a. Clinical Correlation Project: Needs to be written on a patient with a health problem in this course. Must have the instructor's approval prior to writing the assignment. Due the 4th school day after the clinical day caring for the patient. b. Leadership / Management Papers for clinical: Due as designated by clinical instructors. c. Diagnostic Analysis and care plan for clinical: Due as designated by clinical instructors. d. One Diabetic Diet project. TBA in class. e. Weekly Reflective Journals If the above papers are not handed in on the designated day, they will not be accepted. Assignments should be submitted as clinical instructor requires. The SN is ultimately 7 responsible for papers that get lost or that pass the hands of people in between the SN and instructor. 4. Passing (satisfactory) evaluation of clinical performance: The student nurse must meet the standards of this course in order to attain a passing grade. This includes completing ALL patient care assignments on time, correctly demonstrating all nursing skills presented in all previous nursing courses, etc. (See clinical evaluation form for competencies required.) Note: Evidence of unsafe, ineffective, or unreliable nursing care will result in failure of the course regardless of exam scores or written assignments. Failure to attain any one of the above criteria will result in failure of the course Critical Incident A critical incident should not be viewed only as a punitive activity, rather as a learning experience and a way to improve clinical performance. To provide fair judgment on this process, the following should occur: SN should review the nursing handbook regarding Critical Incident citations. SN should understand a Critical Incident may be given at any time during the clinical day or at the conclusion of the clinical day Once the SN is informed by the instructor that he/she is receiving a Critical Incident, the following is the student's responsibility: o Retrieve a copy of the Critical Incident form (In Blackboard under Second Year Nursing Course or in Nursing Handbook).Complete the Student sections of the form and return to the instructor on the next school day or designated date by instructor o Schedule an appointment with the clinical instructor to discuss Critical Incident report Need for Professional Development Professional development is a key component of any nursing curriculum. One goal of the IVCC nursing program is to assist students in developing behavior and qualities that are professional and collegial. A Need for Professional Development is a reporting system that identifies areas of student concerns, weaknesses, or need. This report should be viewed as a learning experience and an opportunity to develop professionally. Please refer to the Nursing Handbook for further description of this report. 8 ILLINOIS VALLEY COMMUNITY COLLEGE Course Syllabus Division: Course: HEALTH PROFESSIONS NURS 2211 – Holistic Nursing III INSTRUCTOR INFORMATION: Lecture instructors: Ann Bruch & Margie Francisco Clinical instructors: Ann Bruch, Margie Francisco, Nora Hamilton, Ania Peek Contact information and office can be found on instructor’s website.
