College of Nursing faculty and the clinical nurse experts within UK HealthCare engage in a constantly evolving network of teams, partnerships, and various collaborative activities. Nurse faculty members contribute to clinical strategic planning activities, as well as weekly clinical leadership meetings.

Likewise, UKHC nurse experts contribute to the strategic planning and governance processes within the college. Expertise, resources, and personnel are shared for mutual benefits. For example, several faculty members practice within UKHC, while several UKHC nurse leaders serve as preceptors and part-time or adjunct faculty members.
