For this assignment, you will complete a MedU case study based on the course objectives and weekly content. MedU cases emphasize core learning objectives for an evidence-based primary care curriculum. Throughout your nurse practitioner program, you will use the MedU case studies to promote the development of clinical reasoning through the use of ongoing assessments and diagnostic skills and to develop patient care plans that are grounded in the latest clinical guidelines and evidence-based practice.
The MedU assignments are highly interactive and a dynamic way to enhance your learning. Material from the MedU cases may be present in the quizzes, the midterm exam, and the final exam.
