NUR 1040 - Care, Caring, and Caregiving

3 cr


The need for care is said to be universal, something that we all want and need, but is not necessarily well understood by those who choose to engage in a caregiving relationship. This course will explore the phenomena of care, caring, and caregiving through multiple lenses - historical, philosophical, ethical, and cultural - as the basis for personal and professional development as a caregiver and recipient of care. Using various texts and forms of media the story of care, caring, and caregiving will be explored from an insider and outsider perspective. Through narrative methods of teaching and learning, students will be actively engaged in critical reflection on the meaning of care, caring relationships, and caregiving.
