title: Twenty care components: an educational strategy to teach nursing science.
abstract: The HHCC System's twenty care components and nomenclature provide a framework for the development of teaching strategies to prepare nurses for practice in the 21st century. The use of an integrated system of instruments accessible to students on-line allows for a smooth transition from course to course and later to clinical nursing practice. Faculty and/or instructors at Georgetown University School of Nursing use this innovative educational strategy and conceptual approach to facilitate collaboration with other healthcare providers and to model professional behavior for students.
