This toolkit is intended for academic and practice partners interested in pursuing the dedicated education unit (DEU) teaching-learning model. The purpose of the toolkit is to provide information about effective planning and implementation strategies for initiating and fostering thriving DEUs.
The formulation of this toolkit has been a joint venture between the University of Texas Health Science Center School of Nursing (黑料网 School of Nursing), Methodist Healthcare System (MHS), and the South Texas Veteran鈥檚 Health Care System-Audie L. Murphy Memorial Hospital (STVHCS). The three well-established partners have successfully utilized DEUs for specified clinical courses consistently since 2011, and believe that other academic-practice partnerships may benefit from the successful process that has been developed.
