Abstract:
As the healthcare environment continues to change, nurses are developing models for interdisciplinary care in a variety of community settings. The high school is an ideal treatment setting for the delivery of health services to adolescents. This article describes the development of a nurse-managed, school-based health center. The steps in planning and implementing this interdisciplinary service and training site are outlined to provide a guide for nurses wishing to develop autonomous community practice settings.
