This course provides the theoretical foundations for advanced practice in family nursing.  Students analyze the theoretical and empirical bases for understanding families in various cultural and developmental context.  Students examine selected theoretical frameworks for understanding families and family health and compare them in terms of their utility for nursing practice and research.  Students examine universal family processes of attachment and care giving across cultural contexts.  Students investigate current theories of family stress and crises as well as the impact of selected situational and developmental crises of family health and development.  Students address the link between the state of family science, nursing research, and advanced practice in family nursing.
