Pharmacology – NTI NURS 1130
Our Pharmacology – NTI course teaches you about basic pharmacology as well as the standards of medication and their administration. Explore a range of topics, including drug administration, drug administration legislation, quality improvement, risk management, drug calculations, drug classifications, drug uses, mechanism of action, and side/adverse effects. Learn to develop critical thinking and inquiry skills around the safe administration of medication by focusing on the study of drugs and their action in the human body as it relates to nursing practice and, more particularly, the roles/responsibilities of RNs. The lens of professional accountability acts as a foundation as you learn to apply client safety concepts such as harmful incidences and near misses. Using client-care scenarios, practice applying pharmacology knowledge in nursing practice decisions.
