摘要

The purpose of this 2-year study was to evaluate a new educational partnership for a nurse-managed community center in Taiwan. This project provided care to senior residents in an apartment complex and was integrated into a nursing educational program in Taiwan. In collaboration with these organizations, an educational partnership model was developed and evaluated. Three goals were accomplished: to provide health care to elderly residents, practical learning experience for nursing students, and practical experience for nursing faculty. The findings indicated that teachers, students, and residents in the apartment complex presented a high level of satisfaction with this model. The model created a vivid, practical, community-based resource and applied the principles of service-learning into practical nursing education in Taiwan. The model not only facilitated the empowerment of involved organizations, but also served as a reference for developing other community center-based nursing educational partnerships.
