Model” : A 5 page paper critiquing Linda Flynn’s publication

Review of “The Partnership Model: Working with
Individuals, Families, and Communities toward a New
Vision of Health” : A 4 page paper reviewing this article by
Courtney et al. (1996). As evident from the several in-text
references as well as this article’s bibliography, Reni Courtney,
the article’s primary author, is one who has been active in both
working and reporting views from the vantage of the public
health nurse. The authors argue for integration of roles so that
individuals are given greater voice in their own health care.
Rather than being only a paper of theory, the authors present a
clear plan of achieving that partnership and give an example of
using the elementary school health fair as making contact with
much of the community. Bibliography lists 1 source.
