Learning-Service Community Partnership Model: a pediatric program evaluation.
Pediatric clinical learning experiences in which service provision is offered present a challenge to nursing faculty and students. The Learning-Service Community Partnership Model is a framework in which innovative learning and service provision are an integral part of the pediatric nursing clinical experience. This article discusses a program evaluation of a pediatric community-based health promotion program based on this model. The result from this program evaluation shows that a service program can be effectively managed and provided by pediatric nursing faculty and students. This article describes the shift in moving pediatric learning experiences into the community and validates its importance.
