Leading Academic-Practice Partnerships in Nursing and Healthcare: A Paradigm for Change

is a comprehensive guide for unlocking the power of partnerships -transforming healthcare by improving care processes, care coordination, and patient outcomes through collaborative partnerships among nursing academic and practice sectors.

Written by experts immersed in this work for well over a decade, this indispensable resource shows how to develop robust partnerships focused on health systems, population health, and community care-and how to build the organizational structure needed to sustain and grow those partnerships.

This book provides:

  • An understanding of why academic-practice partnerships are important, their benefits, and the nurses role in partnership development
  • A framework supported with tools and processes for developing an effective academic-practice partnership
  • Case studies and real-world examples of successful partnerships
  • Timelines for expected growth, personnel, and funding needed for sustainability

Rooted in the AACN Essentials, this first-of-its-kind book presents a path to investing in a future where collaboration drives quality, equity, and innovation and where nurses can lead needed changes in their organizations and communities.
