Relevance?

This is the text that was assigned for a refresher course for nursing. I do not comprehend the relevance of it to becoming reinstated as a nurse. It's all theory with no practicality - theory with no concrete examples of application. Is nursing education that far removed from practice? A disappointing experience!
