The mission of publichealth is to protect and promote the health of the public; thus the predominant client focus of thiscourse will be the community or population. This course will provide an opportunity for graduatestudents to critically examine the major theoretical foundations of public health and populationhealth, to understand the conflicting paradigms of health protection and health promotion and todevelop public health competencies in analysing selected public and population health issues.Relevant theories, ethical principles, and research findings will be critiqued and applied topopulation health challenges. Global, national, provincial and local health issues will be studied;however, the lens and tools utilized in this course will be predominantly from a Canadianperspective on public health and population health. The overall goal of the course is to facilitatestudents to take leadership as advanced practice practitioners in applying public and populationhealth theory and strategies to complex health challengesNUR1036HADVANCED NURSING PRACTICE IN ONCOLOGYThe course will focus on the examination of theory and research literature from the physiological,socio-behavioural, medical, and nursing sciences for application in advanced level nursingpractice in the care of adults and children with cancer and their families across the cancercontinuum. Emphasis will be placed on a reflective practitioner model to facilitate the participants‟ability to apply theory and evidence in advanced level nursing practice to address common issuesin the clinical course of cancer in the context of the multidisciplinary team.(3 hours/week)NUR1038HSOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH IN A GLOBAL CONTEXTThe course is designed to integrate psychosocial epidemiology and political economy in theexplanation of social inequalities in mental health.

Women's health is conceptualized withinthree disciplinary/analytic perspectives, which have contemporary relevance for health careprofessionals. The first perspective is a feminist analysis where gender is viewed as a major axisof difference that affects health status. Secondly, evolving developmental theoretical approachesare integrated as a framework upon which to consider how age and gender differences in healthare likely to reflect the socially constructed nature of gender roles and expectations regardingUniversity of Toronto Lawrence S.

among other aspects, chronological age. Thirdly, this course highlights the geographicalrelevance of place, space and context to women's health concerns.(3 hours/week)NUR1040HISSUES IN WOMEN’S HEALTH CAREEngage in study of current issues in women‟s health care including several vital emergingtheoretical, methodological and political debates in the field. Contextualize debates within thesocio-historical context of a changing health care system. Analyses based solely on gender areno longer adequate to explain the complex problems encountered in a social world wheredistinctions such as class, race, ethnicity and (dis)ability form the basis of vastly differentexperiences of health and health care. Important tensions at the “front lines” of health care areencountered daily by women in various places and different positions as paid or unpaid careproviders and care recipients. Discussions focus on the implications of these situatedexperiences of health and health care, for research in women‟s health, health policy, provision ofhealth care, and for interventions which feature health education.(3 hours/week)NUR1042HRESPONSES OF CHILDREN AND FAMILIES TO ILLNESS IN CHILDHOODAcute and chronic illness in childhood has multiple implications for nursing practice, research,and theory development. Critically examine theory, research, practice and policies in relation tothe impact of illness in childhood on the child, family and society. Central theories include stressand coping, adaptation, pain, and quality of life to critically analyze responses and potentialintervention strategies. Implications for clinical practice, research, theory development, healthservices utilization and policy are examined.(3 hours/week)NUR1043HTHEORIES OF INTERPERSONAL PROCESSRegardless of the clinical setting in which practice occurs, a fundamental aspect of clinicalpractice is communication. When we interact with clients/ patients, we bring to the interaction ourown histories. Examine some of the major theoretical constructs that influence the interpersonalprocess. Particular attention is paid to how an individual develops a sense of self and to the roleof gender in the construction of self. Explore how the sense of self determines how we are withpeople, how readily we can hear others, and how effectively we can modify behaviours. Theseabilities are examined from both the clinician and the client/patient perspective. Object relationstheory provides the primary theoretical perspective for examination of the interpersonal process,although other theoretical perspectives such as inter-subjectivity and self in-relation theory areconsidered.(2 hours/week)NUR1045HTHEORIES OF PAIN: IMPACT ON THE INDIVIDUAL, FAMILY AND SOCIETYPain is universal and exists across all ages and stages of the life cycle. Pain is a complex yetelusive phenomenon that has a major impact on the individual, family and society.
