Abstract
Academic nursing centers, or nurse-managed clinics, are relatively new health care delivery systems. Little information exists as to the demographic characteristics of individuals who use academic nursing centers for health care. Moreover, little is found in the literature about the types of conditions diagnosed and the procedures and tests performed at academic nursing centers. Based on one academic nursing center, this project showed that 3,263 persons received care during an 8-month period. The types of conditions diagnosed and the demographic characteristics of individuals cared for are described. The procedures and diagnostic tests performed are identified. These data have important implications for marketing, predicting resources, and meeting the educational component of the academic nursing center.
