Institution Mission, Philosophy\u00a0*<\/p>\n
Mission<\/p>\n
Galen College of Nursing, driven by a culture dedicated to expanding access to nursing education, prepares diverse learners to demonstrate excellence and compassion in nursing through an educational approach immersed in innovation, technology, and student support<\/p>\n
Philosophy <\/p>\n
HUMAN BEINGS <\/p>\n
The faculty of the Galen College of Nursing believe that humans are complex bio-psycho-social-spiritual beings who are shaped by culture, experiences, environment, and relationships. We believe that human beings are free to think, are inquisitive, continually learn in order to grow and realize their full potential, are autonomous, and are to be valued and respected as unique individuals.<\/p>\n
SOCIETY\/ENVIRONMENT <\/p>\n
Human beings influence and are influenced by socioeconomic, cultural, social, geopolitical, technological, and physical environments. As such, human beings and society represent mutually-adaptive relationships that are dynamic and influence the health and wellbeing of individuals, families, communities, and populations.<\/p>\n
HEALTH\/HEALTHCARE <\/p>\n
We believe that health is a complex concept that incorporates physical, emotional, social, spiritual, and mental wellbeing and is influenced by an individual\u2019s environment, culture, and personal practices. Health is individually defined to reflect each person\u2019s ability to meet life goals and capacity to adapt to life\u2019s stressors and challenges. Health can be promoted, maintained, or regained through individual efforts and\/or in collaboration with health care providers.<\/p>\n
Healthcare is a complex system designed to help individuals, families, communities, and global populations manage illness, reduce healthcare disparities, and achieve a desired level of wellness. It is a basic human right and requires the collaboration of interdisciplinary teams to ensure that holistic, culturally-relevant care is provided to all individuals and communities to reduce health disparities and meet the needs of particularly vulnerable populations worldwide.<\/p>\n
NURSING <\/p>\n
Nurses are members of interdisciplinary teams who bring a unique perspective to and ensure that patient-centered, holistic, and culturally-appropriate care is provided. They engage in practice that is part science, drawing on a broad range of knowledge and skills, employing critical thinking, and using evidence as a basis for decisions and interventions. Nursing practice also is part art, which is demonstrated by caring and compassion; advocacy on behalf of patients, families, communities, and populations; and the respect shown to all those in their care. Nurses are leaders who embrace ethical standards and facilitate change that will benefit the profession, as well as those whom they serve. Nurses bring a scholarly perspective to their practice which is demonstrated by their spirit of inquiry, clinical reasoning, and willingness to continually learn and grow.<\/p>\n
TEACHING\/LEARNING <\/p>\n
We believe that learning is a lifelong endeavor, as well as a life-changing opportunity that fosters understanding and insight. Teaching and learning are collaborative and reciprocal processes that occur in safe, inclusive, student-centered, and trusting environments. Galen College of Nursing | Louisville Campus STUDENT CATALOG | Volume 71, July 2021 85 Teachers guide, support, and empower students throughout their journey to become professional nurses. They use innovative methods and technology to facilitate learning in the cognitive, psychomotor, and affective domains in order to help students learn the art and science of nursing and promote their total development. Students bring their unique perspectives to the nursing discipline, and they are expected and encouraged to be actively involved in and take responsibility for their own learning.<\/p>\n

**\u00a0For the organizing framework, some schools may use a nursing theory, professional standards or, accrediting standards.<\/p>\n
*\u00a0If you choose Galen to conduct your curricular analysis assignment, please note that Galen is unique and is a stand-alone College of Nursing; it is not attached to a university or community college: so, for Table 1 – Institution Mission and Nursing Mission are the same.\u00a0 For this paragraph in the paper speak to Galen\u2019s mission.\u00a0<\/p>\n
* Also, Galen uses a variety of standards, guidelines, and competencies to organize their curriculum for their many programs that they offer. There is not one specific organizing framework that Galen uses \u2013they use QSEN, COPA, ANA Nursing scope and standards of practice, Lenbergs, NLN Outcomes and Competencies, etc. (Galen catalog p. 84). It would be too cumbersome to create tables for all organizations\/models that Galen uses as a framework. To keep it simple, I encouraged you to choose one and identify which one you are using to show the key elements in the table; discuss this in the body of paper.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
