Ten steps to create an innovative community-based pediatric experience as part of a clinical practicum: a model.
Innovative and alternative learning experiences are needed for students to obtain essential parts of the pediatric nursing clinical experience. This article presents a Ten Step approach guide for nurse educators to develop and implement a community-based pediatric primary health care model in a clinical practicum. The community pediatric primary health care experience is part of the San Jose State University School of Nursing's Nurse Managed Centers. Our approach focuses on providing community-based primary health care by faculty and nursing students to culturally diverse, underserved children and families in community settings in and around the university.
