Course description
In this course, Bachelor of Nursing students will gain an integrated understanding of how different biological systems interact to regulate healthy human physiology and how dysfunction of these systems occurs in disease. Given that the endocrine, nervous and immune systems are important regulators of homeostasis and allow communication between various organs, these three systems will lay the foundation for much of what is learnt in this course. Appropriate management of many disease states involves pharmacological treatment and so when diseases are discussed, the pharmacology pertaining to those diseases is covered.
