Abstract
To improve breast cancer screening in a federally qualified health center, NPs developed a collaborative team of nurses to implement innovative strategies that improved mammography rates from 23% to 40% over a 12-month period. Through shared expertise, this team led the way in translating mammography guidelines into clinical practice.
