- Abstract
This article describes the process for convening a national Roundtable that brought together multiple stakeholders to create a united vision and collaborative approach to care coordination for students with chronic health conditions and introduces the resulting published Translating Strategies into Actions to Improve Care Coordination for Students with Chronic Health Conditions white paper. Schools across the country are engaged to various degrees in addressing the health and academic success of students with chronic health conditions. Lack of a common definition of care coordination presents ongoing challenges to planning, implementing, and evaluating outcomes of care coordination for students with chronic health conditions. The Roundtable's overarching goal was to identify recommended actions for health and education leaders to implement a system to support care coordination at the school and district level. School nurses can use this description of the National Association of School Nurses' approach when convening community stakeholders to address common concerns related to student health and academic success. The Roundtable outcomes presented can be used by health and education leaders in schools and school districts to design, implement, and sustain system change to support care coordination as a strategy to manage chronic health conditions in school, recognizing the school nurse's central role.
