Abstract
The benefits of nurse-led mobile clinics to the communities they serve have been adequately documented in the nursing and health literature. Nurse-led clinics are credited with a variety of positive outcomes from improving access to care to helping build healthier communities. However, the impact of nurse-led clinics on nursing education has not been as widely discussed. A nurse-led, mobile health clinic was established to serve individuals and families facing financial crisis and provide a practice site for students and faculty. Students developed nursing skills, including leadership, cultural awareness, active listening, critical thinking, effective communication, and collaboration. In the first 4 years of operation, 30 students have been assigned to the mobile clinic and approximately 2,250 visitors received free health care. These findings can inform the implementation of nursing curriculum or activities specifically designed for student involvement in nurse-led mobile health clinics and the development and advancement of nursing skills.
