This 2-volume bundled self-study course is designed for establishing a faith community nursing practice. The nurse audience is led from the inception of an idea, through role definition, strategies for services, and interaction with the community at large. Practice models are described, fund-raising ideas given; working documents, planning strategies, and problem-solving scenarios are offered. It is a reflective and strategizing course complete with an "Operations Manual" bound in and the accompanying health promotion course for congregants entitled "What It Really Means to be Healthy" to complete the set for a successful practice establishment. To also purchase the health promotion text, search for the title or author's name under the Books tab at the top of this webpage. The author is an experienced community health nurse and nurse educator interested in ministering to the whole person through the avenues of physical, mental and emotional, social, economic, and spiritual resources. The faith community offers an opportunity to lead individuals across the life span to well being.
