Maintaining clinical practice as PhD or DNP/DPT tenure stream faculty is very difficult despite the essential need in #Nursing and probably PT too.
While I believe current clinical practice is essential for faculty on a tenure track - it is untenable.
This is why 👇
1/10 The infamous "three legged stool", the traditional model of tenure stream academia -teaching,research,service- does not include clinical practice
Clinical faculty are often separate from tenure stream faculty
Tenure stream #Nursing faculty are usually not in clinical sites
