This book provides a step-by-step guide to starting and sustaining a community health center, with an emphasis on nurse-managed centers.

The authors share their firsthand knowledge with readers, including information on developing a mission statement, pulling together an advisory board, writing a business plan, and getting funding. The process for obtaining Federally Qualified Health Center Status (and thus federal funding) is described. This book provides tools, information and resources under these topics:

  • Organizational Development
  • Initial Planning
  • Ongoing Planning
  • Funding
  • Financial Operations
  • Policies and Procedures
  • Continuous Quality / Performance Improvement
  • Information Systems

Of great value is the book's Appendix, which provides very useful examples. They include sample bylaws, sample mission statement, tools for strategic planning, a sample health care plan, sample business plan, a full policy and procedure manual, physician and nurse practitioner collaborative agreements, job descriptions, a contract with a local agency, and outcome and assessment guidelines, and more.
