COURSE RATING

Learn nursing anatomy and physiology online

with Jasmine Clark, PhD from Emory University and Darren Salmi, MD, MS from Stanford University

As every nursing intervention has the potential to affect the structure and functions of the human body, a robust understanding of anatomy and physiology is essential to providing safe, competent, and effective nursing care. However, the vast amount of information and the complexity of the human body can make this field particularly challenging.

This course covers all anatomy and physiology topics necessary for nursing students. Dr. Salmi from Stanford will walk you through the structures of the human body, organized by body systems. In the second half of the course, Dr. Clark from Emory University will teach you the key physiological processes of each system.

An adaptive learning algorithm, downloadable Cheat Sheets, and a NCLEX-style Qbank are part of the learning platform, boosting retention and understanding. By the end of this course, you will have a thorough understanding of anatomy and physiology, and feel ready to apply this knowledge in your exams, the NCLEX, and your future nursing practice.

FAQs

What is the study of physiology in nursing?

Physiology is the study of how the human body normally functions and can be investigated at the level of cells, tissues, organ systems, and the whole body. The underlying goal is to explain the fundamental mechanisms that operate in a living organism and how they interact.

What is anatomy in nursing?

Human anatomy is the study of the structure and function of the body.

What is the importance of anatomy and physiology in nursing?

Anatomy and physiology are important for nursing because nurses have to understand how to care for their patients. For that, it’s important that they know how the body operates in a balanced state. If the body isn’t balanced, nurses have to know why and should be able to restore the body’s equilibrium to help the patient.

How do you pass anatomy and physiology?

The best way to succeed in your physiology class is to combine different learning modalities: First, deep-dive into the topics with video lessons and master the key concepts with Lecturio’s concise Cheat Sheets. Next, apply what you’ve learned to practical situations by answering clinical case questions about the topic. Lastly, make sure you retain information long-term by regularly reviewing your knowledge with regular Recall Quizzes. Lecturio’s preconfigured study schedules combine all this into a streamlined studying experience. Go to Learning Path

What is the difference between anatomy and physiology?

Anatomy refers to the internal and external structures of the body and their physical relationships, whereas physiology refers to the study of the functions of those structures and how they interact with each other.
