BSN 246 – Health Assessment at Nightingale College focuses on developing comprehensive patient assessment skills through systematic collection of subjective and objective data. The course emphasizes conducting a thorough health history, performing accurate vital signs measurement, and completing a detailed head-to-toe physical examination using inspection, palpation, percussion, and auscultation techniques. Students learn to assess all major body systems—including neurological, cardiovascular, respiratory, gastrointestinal, musculoskeletal, and integumentary systems—while applying clinical reasoning to identify normal versus abnormal findings. Proper documentation using formats such as SOAP notes is also emphasized to ensure clear communication and continuity of care.
