The Teaching Nursing Home Series prepares nursing home staff and nursing school faculty to develop academic-practice partnerships and provide meaningful learning experiences for students. This series describes how to create successful student clinical rotations in nursing homes that allow students to care for older adults with complex and overlapping illnesses, provide exposure to and interaction with healthcare teams, and with faculty supervision that fosters the student’s appreciation of both the complexity of the care and the opportunities to achieve improvements that promote quality of life.
