His expertise has been in the area of cardiac care, working in the Coronary Care Unit at a local hospital. Jake has returned to school to complete a baccalaureate degree in nursing. The community surrounding the university that Jake attends has identified a need to address healthcare access for the homeless population. A local church approached the university to work with it to develop a clinic for the homeless by using resources in the community and students for the delivery of care for this underserved population. Jake's preceptor, Linda, a public health nurse (PHN), is representing the local public health department at planning meetings. Jake will have the opportunity to learn how professionals, community members, and organizations collaborate to contribute to the development of a community clinic that serves a vulnerable population. Jake has many questions, such as: Whom would he collaborate with to contribute to this goal? Whom should be invited to be partners in the collaboration? How does such a diverse group work together? What is the PHN's responsibility in collaborative work?Before Jake attends the first planning meeting with Linda, he picks up his notebook to review the population-based public health nursing competency list and concentrates on Competency #6, which focuses on collaborative practice.
