Course summary
The CNS track prepares nurses to be leaders who are clinical experts in adult nursing, and who can provide direct patient care, and work in consultation, research and education. CNS practice focuses on three spheres of influence: the client, staff and organization. Clinical Nurse Specialists practice in hospitals, clinics, nursing homes, private practice and other community based settings such as industry, home care and HMOs. In the CNS option, students have the opportunity to pursue individual interests with respect to adult clientele or health care settings.
