School Facts: Partnership Highlights

Partnerships have always been a part of nursing, whether involving supportive relationships with patients, daily consultations with colleagues in the health care profession, or outreach to the community. Over the years, partnerships to improve nursing education and nursing research have been pivotal to the School of Nursing.

• The school maintains relationships with health care institutions across the state and nation with 1,200 physicians and nurse practitioners instructing, guiding and mentoring our students.
• Through innovative partnerships, six large local medical centers provide expert nurses as loaned faculty to the School of Nursing, and our undergraduate nursing students provide much-needed assistance at their facilities.
• The Nursing Practice Advisory Board, made up of the chief nursing officers of regional health organizations, meets quarterly to bring valuable information to the school about needs and trends in their institutions and the nursing profession.
