A health professions faculty workload plan for a liberal arts setting.
This case study describes an approach to planning the workload and expenditure of allied health faculty effort. The plan is based upon a review of the literature, a survey of other schools in similar settings, and faculty negotiation. It meets the need for faculty accountability, congruence between faculty workloads and institutional goals, faculty staffing determinations, and a means to compare nursing and allied health faculty workloads with those of more traditional liberal arts faculty. The plan may serve as a model for other health professions academic units.
