The clinical academic practice partnership (CAPP), a clinical redesign based on the dedicated education unit concept, was developed and implemented by large, private school of nursing in collaboration with 4 clinical partners to provide quality clinical education, to explore new clinical models for the future, and to test an innovative clinical education design. An executive steering committee consisting of nursing leaders and educators from the school of nursing and the clinical institutions was established as the decision-making and planning components, with several collaborative task forces initiated to conduct the work and to accomplish the goals. This article will describe methods to initiate and to organize the key elements of this dedicated education unit-type clinical model, providing examples and an overview of the steps and elements needed as the development proceeded. After 18 months of implementation in 4 different nursing programs in 4 different clinical institutions, the clinical redesign has shown to be a positive initiative, with students actively requesting CAPP units for their clinical experiences. Preliminary findings and outcomes will be discussed, along with nursing education implications for this new clinical redesign.
临床学术实践伙伴关系(CAPP)是基于专门教育单位概念的临床重新设计,由大型私立护理学校与 4 个临床合作伙伴共同开发和实施,旨在提供优质的临床教育,探索未来的新临床模式,并测试创新的临床教育设计。一个由护理学校和临床机构的护理领导和教育者组成的执行指导委员会被设立为决策和规划组件,同时启动了几个协作工作组来开展工作和实现目标。本文将介绍启动和组织这种专门教育单位型临床模式的关键要素的方法,提供在开发过程中所需的步骤和要素的示例和概述。在 4 个不同的临床机构的 4 个不同护理项目中实施 18 个月后,这种临床重新设计已被证明是一项积极的举措,学生积极要求将 CAPP 单元纳入他们的临床经验中。本文将讨论初步发现和结果,以及这种新的临床重新设计对护理教育的影响。
