Physical Assessment Across the Lifespan for PNP Students

Physical Assessment across the lifespan for PNP students is designed to prepare the student to take a complete health and developmental history of a person across the lifespan, and perform a systematic physical examination. The student should recognize physical, psychological, and developmental problems, and begin to develop differential diagnosis. Emphasis will be placed on recording key history points, physical examination findings, and developmental assessment as well as the use of screening tools.
