Abstract:
In summary, improved population health, population focused care, and community-based networks are the objectives of health care delivery systems. Community/public health nursing education, practice, and research must be re-examined, re-focused, and re-designed to address the challenges of an expanding 21st century health care delivery to populations and communities. Common standards are in place to be utilized by academia, practice and research. With a unified front, C/PHN can collectively play an important transformative role and go forward to meet the ever expanding challenges of the 21st century populations and communities. The Association of Public Health Nurses (APHN) and the Association of Community Health Nurse Educator (ACHNE) have a joint meeting planned in June 2016 in Indianapolis. Please bring your colleagues, stakeholders, and community partners to join the voices of C/PHN to make a positive impact on the changing health care environment through our education, practice and work.
