Collaborative model for continuing education for home health nurses.

Nursing is at the heart of home care; therefore, the profession of nursing must ensure the availability of qualified nurses to provide and manage care in the growing and increasingly complex home care market. In response to this need, the College of Nursing, Arizona State University, developed a CE program for nurse clinicians and managers in home care. This article describes the development, implementation, and outcomes of a project that linked service agencies with education in this collaborative endeavor.
