Participants travel to a selected Indigenous community to practice nursing in a variety of settings, including caring for individuals or families, and community or public health. Prerequisite: NURS 3500 and NURS 3510 Note: Students will only receive credit for one of: NURS 3360, NURS 3380 or NURS 3390.
