NURS 301 Health Assessment and Promotion within Culturally Diverse Populations: This course is designed to assist the professional nurse to further develop interviewing skills and physical assessment skills which will be used in working with patient populations, including multicultural groups. Students will interview and assess individuals and analyze assessment data which they will then compare and contrast to normal findings to determine specific health care needs. Emphasis will be placed on patients’ cultural considerations and access to care in their community. 

NURS 453 Interprofessional Perspectives in LGBTQ+ Health: LGBTQ+ health is a growing field of interest for a wide variety of health providers and related disciplines, but there is a dearth of knowledge and research in related subjects. LGBTQ+ persons are at risk for health disparities in access, care, and outcomes in such areas as substance use, cancer, infectious diseases, mental illness, and violence. This interprofessional course will examine theories, knowledge, and research around LGBTQ+ health, with an emphasis on intersectionality of identities such as race, ethnicity, class, ability, and other factors. The interprofessional health care of LGBTQ+ patients, clients, and families will be addressed in depth.
