| Learning Objective #1: Understand how collaborative and diverse partnerships are foundational to community development and population health models | |||
| Learning Objective #2: Explain strategies to establish both scholarly and practice partnerships to access diverse resources |
This presentation will discuss collaborative partnerships developed when the Faculty of Nursing at the University of New Brunswick received funding to operate a nurse-managed Community Health Clinic. The Nursing Faculty were aware that an extensive partnership network was essential to enable the Clinic to address each of the determinants of health and provide much needed service to those who otherwise had very limited health resources. Scholarly collaborative partnerships have been developed among several Faculties and Departments to provide service to the client population, student practice placements and research opportunities, and to seek future financial resources. Beyond the University community, practice partnerships have been developed to include professional service delivery partners, community organizations, volunteers, members of the client population and Government departments. The principles of community development and population health are the driving philosophies behind these collaborative partnerships.
