The nursing process and ethical consideration are used with an emphasis on the developmental, physiological, psychosocial, cultural, and spiritual care of the child within the family unit. Using the nursing process, strategies are formulated for promoting, enhancing, and maintaining optimal functioning of the child-family unit. A clinical practicum to develop student competencies in providing nursing care to pediatric patients and families during each phase of the childbearing cycle is included.
