Developing dual role nursing staff-clinical instructor: a partnership model.
Supported by visionary leadership, a unique strategic-academic partnership model was established with grant support between the University of Maryland School of Nursing, Baltimore, and 13 Maryland hospitals to prepare hospital-based staff nurses as clinical instructors. Participating hospitals gained masters' degree-prepared nurses able to lead the achievement of clinical and organizational goals. The schools of nursing gained additional access to clinical education resources to enable increased undergraduate enrollment.
