The Calgary Conjoint Nursing Program. Part II: Successful political action.
When three calgary institutions decided to develop a collaborative nursing program to prepare for the transition to baccalaureate nursing education by the year 2000, the planners found that they had to overcome a broad range of political and institutional hurdles. Faculty from Mount Royal College, Foothills Hospital School of Nursing and the University of Calgary spent six years developing the curriculum and planning for the implementation of the Calgary Conjoint Nursing Program (CCNP). (See The Calgary Conjoint Nursing Program, Part I: Spirit of Collaboration, in the March 1999 issue of this journal.)
