Abstract
SummaryManaged care, shortened hospital stays, and a renewed focus on health promotion have opened up the field of community based nursing practice. To adequately prepare students for community based practice, schools of nursing are challenged to develop both undergraduate and graduate level community based clinical experiences. The parish nurse practice is an ideal setting to educate both novice and experienced nurses in the concepts of community based care. This article explores how a parish nurse faculty practice can be used to educate nurses on health promotion and community based care at all levels of the curriculum.
