What is Jump Start?

• Current ADN students can get a “jump start” on their BSN by completing up to two CSUF School of Nursing RN-BSN courses through OU

• Graduating ADN students (May/June 2014) can only participate if they have already submitted a Fall 2014 CSUF and an RN-BSN Nursing application

Page 3: What is Jump Start?

Time Commitment• To be successful in these courses, students should

plan to spend approximately 10-15 hours per week, per class for reading/assignments, etc.

• Students are allowed to participate in both courses as long as they understand the time commitment expected of them for the coursework

Page 4: What is Jump Start?

Courses and Format

• NURS 305 Professional Nursing (4 units)• NURS 310 Nursing Research/Evidence Based Practice

(3 units)– Both courses will be offered in two different formats: a

traditional in-person, on-campus course, as well as an online option, in which students may only meet on the first day of the course

– There will be an in-person, on-campus, “Jump Start” orientation on the first day of the course session

NURS 305 Professional Nursing

• The professional nursing role is examined including nursing theory and research, ethics theory, communication theory and principles, and the nursing process. Selected psychosocial concepts and theories and their relationship to health are the focus of assessment and implementation with individual clients. Theories and concepts of health and techniques in health promotion are presented from a holistic framework. The influence of culture, role, social support, and values upon the nurse and the client are evaluated.

NURS 310 Nursing Research/Evidence Based Practice

• Emphasis is placed on the development of nursing knowledge and the improvement of nursing practice through current relevant evidence. Research methods are examined and current issues are analyzed in relation to the implementation of evidence-based practice in selected settings.
