title: Partnerships for population health: the neighborhood health network.
abstract: Health reform is a major driver in shifting the focus toward population health. Partnerships between nurses, neighborhood health coaches (NHC), and families, linked by technology and extended over time, are key to enhancing neighborhood health. Including faculty practice and students in this work creates a new platform for nursing education in primary care; everyone wins.
