Joint Appointments in Practice Positions

Abstract
Faculty practice has been a value in both nursing education and nursing service. Recent changes in education provide the opportunity for practice to be rewarded in the university setting. Changes in health care delivery demand expert practitioners and leadership in advanced practice nursing. The history of education-practice integration is reviewed. A new role of the practitioner educator (reverse joint appointee) is presented. Benefits of the position to both education and practice are discussed.
