Essential factors in a community college-nursing home partnership.
The community college-nursing home partnership has two major objectives: to develop nursing potential in long-term care settings and to influence the redirection of associate degree nursing education to include active participation in long-term care settings. Successful partnerships are built on a commitment to high quality education for students and high quality service for patients. Other essential factors to a successful partnership include collaborative planning, pragmatic goal setting, clear communication, and mutual respect.
