Nursing care centers: a collaborative effort.

Nursing care centers evolved as a way to deliver health care as well as to bridge the gap between nursing education and nursing practice. This article defines the purposes of a nursing care center, and describes one such center developed by a large Southern university school of nursing, services it renders and the community's need for these services. The importance of collaborative practice in enhancing the success of nursing care centers is discussed.

Community Health Centers

Health screening for the homeless.

The primary purpose of the project described in this paper is to detect actual or potential health problems in homeless persons and to help them gain entry into the public health care domain. A second purpose is to expose nursing students to a broader spectrum of patient needs than those encountered in traditional clinical settings. The community outreach program (COP) is based at a large southern university, where the nursing care center serves as executor of the project. The manuscript discusses funding, data collection, and future plans for the community outreach project.
