Title: Partnership in action: a satellite program to expand an existing bachelor of science in nursing education program. Author: Boyle A, Davis H, Pritchard HK, McBride M, Orsi A, Scott S, Kresge L. Journal: Nurse Educ; 2008; 33(3):131-6. PubMed ID: 18453932. Abstract: The nursing shortage affects communities at many levels, from community hospitals to schools of nursing. The authors describe an innovative 4-way partnership involving a community healthcare district, a community hospital, a community college, and a state university. Working together, these partners established a new baccalaureate nursing program based at a community college and also functioning as a satellite of an existing university-based program, which increased the enrollment of baccalaureate nursing students by 50%. Their work could serve as a model for other collaborative efforts to expand nursing education and reduce the shortage of nurses.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
