Knowledge Transfer for LPN Mental Health Nursing Certificate Program |
Course Description |
This course allows students to transfer/apply the principles and theories covered in the program courses to clinical practice at their workplace. Students work in consultation with their Manager/Team Leader to identify a client that is reasonably expected to remain in the setting for the duration of the student鈥檚 registration in this course, and complete a series of assignments using this client as the subject of the knowledge transfer. The RN or RPN at the site is asked to validate the student鈥檚 written work as needed prior to submission of assignments for the instructor鈥檚 review and grading.
This flexible application of the knowledge base allows staff nurses to continue their paid employment while continuing their learning. The student鈥檚 work in this course is an academic exercise intended for learning purposes only, and is not to be utilized for pay or promotion purposes within the workplace.
This course is only available to students admitted to the LPN Mental Health Nursing Certificate program at the beginning of their studies. |
