TI  - Strengthening an academic nursing center through partnership.
PG  - 197-202
AB  - Nurse-managed health centers offer holistic health care and patient-centered 
      health promotion and disease prevention. These goals are particularly well suited 
      to the needs of children and their families. Few reports in the literature, 
      however, have described such practices. The purpose of this paper is to describe 
      one practice, Valencia Health Services (VHS), a nurse-managed, academic health 
      center providing primary care to pediatric and adolescent patients. Valencia 
      Health Services offers interdisciplinary, comprehensive health services to 
      ethnically diverse children and their families through an inter-university 
      partnership and provides clinical experiences and research opportunities, under 
      the supervision of expert faculty-clinicians, to students of nursing (advanced 
      practice, public health, and case management), social work and psychology. 
      Valencia Health Services is the rare nurse-managed academic health center that 
      provides comprehensive health care to children and adolescents. The multifaceted 
      demands of such a health center, however, present both unique opportunities for 
      quality care and service and considerable ongoing challenges.
