  • Title: Revitalizing academic-service partnerships to resolve nursing faculty shortages.
    Author: Connolly MA, Wilson CJ.
    Journal: AACN Adv Crit Care; 2008; 19(1):85-97. PubMed ID: 18418109.
    Abstract:
    Vacancy rates of nursing faculty are on the increase as fewer educators are being prepared and nurses at the bedside are in short supply. Advanced practice nurses--uniquely suited to provide clinical education for undergraduate and graduate students--are underutilized. However, without release time, preparation as educators, ongoing support from education and administration, and remuneration for providing both evidence-based education and evidence-based patient care, they can hardly be expected to assume additional responsibilities. This article reviews academic-service partnerships, noting a general lack of published efficacy and cost-effectiveness data, and highlights 21st-century innovations for academia and service to share resources for the benefit of all stakeholders--especially patients and students.
