Tara A. Cortes, PhD, RN, CNAA

Bridgeport Hospital; Yale University School of Nursing

This article addresses significant challenges in the delivery of critical care services in hospitals including the need for partnerships between service and education, the need to strengthen interdisciplinary teams, and educational challenges in preparing critical care nurses at both the specialist and generalist levels. Each of these challenges has a direct impact on the quality-of-care outcomes for critical care patients.

Key Words: critical care nursing • interdisciplinary teams • service education partnerships • quality of care
