Nursing care centers: a collaborative effort.
Nursing care centers evolved as a way to deliver health care as well as to bridge the gap between nursing education and nursing practice. This article defines the purposes of a nursing care center, and describes one such center developed by a large Southern university school of nursing, services it renders and the community's need for these services. The importance of collaborative practice in enhancing the success of nursing care centers is discussed.
