Abstract
Women's health care in the United States has been described as unsatisfactory and falling behind the Healthy People 2010 objectives. Inadequate health care due to a shortage of providers is especially problematic for women who are poor with lower socioeconomic status. Advanced practice nurses are well suited to address this need. In this article, preceptor and academic partnerships are discussed as strategies to make more qualified women's health and infant providers available.
