NURS-FPX 4065 focuses on advancing Capella RN-BSN competencies in patient-centered care, care coordination, and ethical nursing practice. The course prepares registered nurses to apply holistic, biopsychosocial approaches when coordinating care across settings, while recognizing patients as active partners in all health care decisions. Emphasis is placed on understanding individual patient needs, preferences, and contextual factors that influence health outcomes.

Students strengthen competencies in interprofessional collaboration, ethical decision making, and advocacy by adapting care practices that support continuity, safety, and quality of care. The course also reinforces the application of the Code of Ethics for Nursing to defend patient-centered decisions and promote equitable care delivery.

Through applied, competency-based assessments, RN-to-BSN learners develop the skills needed to coordinate care effectively within complex healthcare systems. Overall, NURS-FPX 4065 prepares nurses to lead patient-centered coordination efforts that improve outcomes, support regulatory requirements, and align with Capella’s RN-BSN program outcomes.
