Description
Summary:	Five Veterans' Administration Medical Centers formed a consortium to promote nursing research. Consortium arrangements focusing on research are reviewed based on the literature, the consortium's experience, and a survey of 171 VA facilities. Consortiums are suggested for multisite facilities, such as city, state, proprietary, and religious hospital systems, to increase the quality and quantity of nursing research where institutional mechanisms for overcoming the difficulties of meeting and sharing information are already in place.
