title: Models of academic nurse-managed centers.
abstract: It is unclear as to what degree these models form developmental stages. It is clear that each model has its strengths and areas of concern. Community needs, faculty expertise and interests, educational focus of the school of nursing, and the university's mission and goals are major determinants in identifying which model is most appropriate for any given school of nursing. Much can be learned from the experiences of other schools, which will be helpful for those already involved in the NMC movement of those faculty and schools of nursing considering developing such a school of nursing-managed health care service.
