The nursing profession exists to assist patients and clients in reaching their health objectives. Nurses deliver healthcare services to individuals, families, and communities through supportive, preventive, therapeutic, and rehabilitative measures. They work in both institutional environments and community healthcare settings, implementing health interventions either independently or as part of a collaborative healthcare team.
Cal State San Marcos structures its nursing program around a self-care framework. This approach recognizes that individuals typically have the capacity to meet their own health requirements. However, circumstances like illness, injury, or limited health knowledge may hinder self-care capabilities. Nursing professionals aid in restoring these abilities by focusing on health promotion, maintenance, and recovery.
