Project Summary: In this module, we will examine the most widely used theories of human growth and development and the challenges an individual is likely to encounter, as well as the skills the individual is likely to need, for successful growth, development, and maturation throughout the lifespan. This module will also analyze the fetal development processes, changes in pregnant women’s bodies, and role transitions among family members. The focus will be on the entire family and providing valuable resources and information that the family may use to meet its specific needs, with an overall nursing goal of assisting each family to have a healthy pregnancy and birth outcome, to lay the foundation for satisfactory parenting and family life.
