The program also provides leadership to the increasingly\ncomplex and challenging field of modern health care. Graduates of this program\nare in demand as professional nurses in hospitals, long-term care facilities,\nand community health and other health care agencies. You will develop the\nknowledge and skills to become a leader in a variety of health care career paths.\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This program emphasizes health promotion and disease prevention. These goals can be accomplished by 1) capitalizing on early detection of potential health problems, 2) health maintenance in ambulatory services, and 3) preparation for the managerial responsibilities of nursing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The School of Nursing offers various programs to complete the Bachelors\nof Science in Nursing (BSN). Each program listed below leads to the completion\nof the objectives of the undergraduate program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Traditional BSN Program<\/strong>: Traditional pathway. A two-year curriculum following the\ncompletion of general education, elective, and nursing prerequisite\nrequirements.<\/li><li><strong>RN to BSN Program<\/strong>: A great option for students holding current registered nurse\n(RN) licenses! This program can be completed in one year following completion\nof general education, elective, and nursing prerequisite requirements.<\/li><li><strong>Accelerated Second Degree BSN Program<\/strong>: a 12-month, full-time\nprogram for students holding a baccalaureate degree outside of nursing and have\ncompleted nursing prerequisite requirements.<\/li><li><strong>Co-enrollment BSN Program (Non-veteran)<\/strong>: allows students to\ncomplete a BSN degree online while concurrently enrolled in an Applied\nAssociates of Science nursing degree (AAS Nursing) program at a partner\ncommunity college.<\/li><li><strong>Co-enrollment BSN Program (Veteran)<\/strong>: allows military veterans\nto complete all Mason BSN nursing courses online while concurrently enrolled in\ntheir AAS nursing courses at a partner community college.<\/li><li><strong>LPN to BSN Program (Veteran):<\/strong>&nbsp;a full-time program that allows military\nveteran LPNs to pursue a BSN and earn their RN license in 12 months following\ncompletion of prerequisites.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Accelerated Second Degree\nBSN,&nbsp;Traditional BSN, and LPN to BSN (Veteran) Programs must be completed\non a full-time bases. Part-time and full-time options are offered for the RN to\nBSN and Co-enrollment Programs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How to get Admitted the BSN program, <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Students must complete a pre-nursing\ncurriculum prior to admission and be admitted to junior standing. Traditional\nand accelerated program students will enter the program in the fall of their\njunior year and at that point are considered nursing majors. RNs and\nCo-enrollment applicants have more flexibility because they may enter in the\nfall or spring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Application to the BSN program is a process involving two\napplications: the George Mason University Undergraduate Application and the BSN\nDepartmental Application. (Currently enrolled Mason students need only apply\nusing the BSN Departmental Application.) Acceptance to the nursing program is\ncontingent upon admission to the university, but&nbsp;<strong>admission to the university does not guarantee admission to the\nnursing program. <\/strong>Students\npursuing the traditional pathway will first apply to George Mason University,\nand then apply to the BSN Department before starting their junior year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Application to the BSN program is a competitive admission\nprocess. Prospective applicants must meet all BSN eligibility guidelines at the\ntime of application.&nbsp;<strong>Meeting the minimum guidelines\ndoes not guarantee admission into the nursing program. However, all minimum\nrequirements must be made to allow an application to be considered.<\/strong>&nbsp;Students who are interested in pursuing a major in nursing\nare encouraged to contact the nursing program for more information and to\nattend an&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/nursing.gmu.edu\/admissions\/information-sessions\">Information Session<\/a>&nbsp;prior to applying to the\nnursing major.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Reading Activities: <\/strong>Record words to discuss. Write a paragraph for each program that makes the argument whether this program will help you meet your career goals. Cite 3 facts from the program description in your paragraph.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Kinesiology<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This degree in kinesiology is a demanding science-based program designed to prepare students for a career in clinical exercise, coaching, corporate fitness, exercise and sport psychology, medical and exercise equipment sales, personal training, sport and exercise nutrition, sport science, or wellness\/fitness management. The Kinesiology (KINE) program provides students with a strong science foundation for post-graduate specialized study in kinesiology or professional schools (e.g., chiropractic, medical, physical therapy). The KINE program has a comprehensive approach to the study of human movement. Three separate internship experiences totaling 700 hours provide KINE students with the opportunity to apply evidence-based knowledge and its practical application in general fitness, clinical and sports performance settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The KINE degree is designed to assist students in their preparation for nationally-recognized certifications, specifically those offered by the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) and the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA). See&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/catalog.gmu.edu\/colleges-schools\/education-human-development\/recreation-health-tourism\/kinesiology-bs\/index.html#admissionspoliciestext\">Admissions &amp; Policies<\/a>&nbsp;for details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Reading Activities: <\/strong>Record words to discuss. Write a paragraph for each program that makes the argument whether this program will help you meet your career goals. Cite 3 facts from the program description in your paragraph.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Learning Technologies in Health Education: Simulation Laboratories <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Skills Laboratories are a key component of your learning at\nGeorge Mason University. These School of Nursing labs are a well-established\nlearning environment for all levels of nursing students. Each skills lab uses a\nSmartboard, which is used to support and facilitate learning. Specifically, it\nhelps learners connect what they are thinking with what they are doing to the\nvirtual patients. This type of learning is called psychomotor learning because\nit connects your nursing knowledge and your nursing activities. This type of\nhands-on experience develops competencies in multiple simulated health care\nsettings that cross the human life span. These competencies are the skills and\nbehaviors you will use in your future career. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Work in the Skills Laboratory is integrated\nthroughout the traditional and accelerated Bachelor of Science in Nursing\ncurriculum. You will be working regularly with different parts of the Skills\nLaboratory. You will begin with Fundamental Basic Learning and Skills Training.\nThis training teaches basic hygiene, mobility, feeding, and vital physiologic\nskills. You will continue to learn more and more through these trainings. At\nthe end of your studies, you will learn advanced, high acuity physiologic\nskills through these labs. The graduate nursing program accesses the\nlaboratories for the nurse practitioner students to learn and practice\nessential skills needed for the advanced practice of nursing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Simulation Laboratory is an intricate part\nof student learning. It provides a foundation for the critical reasoning\nstudents develop in this program. You will work in a controlled environment to synthesize\nand analyze increasingly complex care scenarios. The Simulation Laboratory is\none of the School of Nursing\u2019s most innovative features. The lab has six\nhospital bed stations and exam areas. There are four video cameras per patient\nbed. These cameras record student performances. These performances can then be\nreviewed with instructors during a debriefing period. The lab also has a\nbirthing and pediatrics simulation area. And, the &nbsp;mock nurse\u2019s station, and medication room will\nhelp you feel familiar in your future employment spaces. These facilities\nexpand the knowledge and training of George Mason\u2019s nursing students. It allows\nthem to participate in administering health care in a hospital before they are\nin live hospital situations. These experiences are also used along with their\nclinical experiences to deepen psychomotor learnings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our simulation lab is home to a variety of\nsimulated (mannequin) patients. These simulated patients range in age from\ninfant to adult, include males and females. There is also a pregnant mannequin\nthat can deliver her baby. All of the mannequins have names, personal histories,\nand life-like features. These features include palpable pulses, voices,\nblinking eyes, and a rising and falling chest to simulate breathing. These\nmannequins can be manipulated, using a computer and compressed air. This allows\neach mannequin to have physiologically accurate responses to the care provided\nby students. Additional equipment, such as IV pumps, EKG monitors, respiratory\nequipment, wound care equipment, an automated medication dispensing machine,\nand crash carts, add to the reality of the learning space. There also exists\nthe ability to perform moulage, which gives select patients the ability to\nappear \u201cmore real.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To facilitate the simulated learning\nenvironment, the Simulation Lab has an observation\/control room with computers\nfor every mannequin and two one-way mirrors that allow faculty to direct and\nevaluate student performance, without be directly involved. This allows the\nstudent to develop decision-making, prioritization, and communication skills\nwithout the comfort of an instructor. The lab is equipped with\nstate-of-the-art, custom-designed audiovisual equipment used for both formative\nand evaluative learning. There is also a debriefing room, which is used to\nconduct reflective discussions and video review, using a Smartboard, following\na simulated learning experience. This presents a realistic hospital in a\nsimulated environment\u2014a \u201cVirtual Hospital\u201d\u2014in which students synthesize\ndidactic and clinical knowledge as they transition into professional practice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Other Wes Moore links we used: A.
