Establishing a nurse-managed wellness clinic in a predominantly older African American inner-city high rise: an advanced practice nursing project.
With funding from a U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development contract awarded to a private university, advanced practice nurse faculty established a nurse-managed wellness clinic in an apartment building populated by predominantly African American older people. Ethnographic methods were used to ensure culturally competent care. The clinic provided nursing, pharmacy, and health sciences faculty and students with community-focused clinical experiences as interdisciplinary team members.
