Description and Table of Contents

Description

This book describes a model of clinical education in which nursing students receive 50% of their clinical experiences in the community--often in settings where no other kinds of health care services are available. The program was developed as part of the Kellogg Foundation's Community Health Education, Research, and Service project, which fosters academic-community health care partnerships. The book describes the issues challenging nurse educators in the face of a changing health care system and provides practical information on implementing community-based clinical experiences. The book includes valuable appendices of specific clinical activities and an evaluation of how these students differ from traditionally trained students after graduation. Nurse educators will find ample information for adapting this program in their own schools.
