Interdisciplinary faculty and student practice in a nurse-managed campus wellness program.
The concept of nurse-managed care in centers for nursing is a growing phenomenon in this era of health care reform. Nursing faculty are utilizing nurse-managed centers as alternative sites for clinical experiences and faculty practice. In this paper the authors highlight interdisciplinary faculty and student practice for a Campus Wellness Program at a midwestern university. Empowering faculty and students, and offering needed health promotion services to the university community, are addressed. Historical background, administrative, practice and educational challenges, and triumphs will be presented.
